Customer Reviews

Well constructed but poorly finished.

The content of this book is well constructed and as a technical reference it is easy to read, unfortunately the poor grammer, spelling and incorrect web site addresses, dulls the credibility of the message.

Excellent content but very poor editing

Data Warehousing in Action provides the best overall content of any book that I have seen in terms of explaining the data warehousing process from end to end, especially around strategy and architecture. Unfortunately, it is also the worst job of editing that I have ever seen. Even spell-checking would have caught a lot of the errors. Perhaps it parallels the fact that you can still get meaningful and useful information out of a data warehouse even if the data quality is far from perfect.
