Excellent book, shame about the CD.
Excellent book. Examples are clear to follow with screen-shots and other illustrations. It would have had 4 or 5 stars but I tried the CD out today to find there is NO PDF VERSION promised. A one-page pdf file states that the e-book was not ready at the time of publication which to me is not professional. Rather than returning the book but I will be contacting the publisher/author to obtain one either through the mail or on-line. Whether or not this proves possible I will post the outcome here. Watch this space ...

A dramatically bad book!
I bought this book in the hope that it would be of value in an Excel project I had to undertake.
Despite it's great size, this book is virtually useless as a reference book. If you just want to do the exercises the author offers then it may have some value but just try to find out one extra thing and the information is not there. Most of the illustrations are trite and, often, the method suggested is wrong or not the best approach. The index stinks!!!
