Title: Save your money
Review: This book is so far from a true administrator's companion it is not even funny. This is an 1100 page promotional pamphlet for Microsoft and the SQL Server wizards.DON'T buy this book if you expect it to be a resource you can return to to answer specific questions / problems about SQL Server. It's not organized in that fashion and it doesn't cover enough of what a DBA really uses.As an example: In 1100+ pages there is a single paragraph explaining the master database - and NO mention of how to rebuild the master db or the rebuildm command. Something that I would think any Admin Companion book would cover in-depth.
