"William Stanek's review materials for the key MCSE Exams are comprehensive, focused, and literate. He has a skill for zeroing in on key concepts are explaining them concisely and clearly. The result is a volume that cannot fail to help MCSE candidates as they prepare for these exams and an excellent resource for anyone responsible for providing and supporting a corporate Windows environment...Overall, this book is an exceptional (perhaps unprecedented) value. It covers a staggering amount of territory with precision and style."
-- Jim Schlotter, Chief Operating Officer, Leap Solutions, Inc.
"This most excellent book provides the core knowledge to prepare you for the current certification exams, which include performance-based testing through simulation. More importantly, this book is meant to be used as part of your final preparation, and not as your only preparation for the exams."
-- John Vacca, Amazon.com
"...the best training resource I've found for helping me to study for my exams. I swear this book packs in more than the 4 book set I bought previous to this (and stopped using in favor of this). In his pocket consultants, Stanek has proven he has a gift for getting to the point and being concise while at the same time being comprehensive. This book is not different. This is the single most useful training guide I've ever purchased. Excellent as a reference as well as a study guide."
