The MCSE series published by Syngress is the best set of books published on the topic of Windows 2000. I went from several other publishers and landed here, thankfully, before spending too much money on tech books. The material in this whole series is presented in an in-depth, fluent manner. The editors do not waste time with sidetracking material I've found in other books. If you are taking the Windows 2000 certs, you'll know by the time you hit 70-216 that Microsoft has gotten serious with these exams. This series will help you prepare effectively for these certs. This book in particular is not for the person who hasn't taken the four core exams yet, but for those nearing completetion of the Windows 2000 MCSE certification. I didn't understand the statements of the previous reviewer of this book. Why would anyone take this exam first over the four core? If it is for a job, then don't you think you would want to have an understanding of Windows 2000 before implementing it in your business environment? I hope that people don't assume Windows 2000 is anything like Windows NT 4.0, it has similarities, but for the most part it is vastly different (and superior). Knowing it thouroghly will be the only way to use it efficiently, and this series provides, in my opinon, the best way to get there.
