4 out of 5 stars Short concise reference   July 28, 2008
Luis Abreu (Funchal, Madeira Portugal)
[Published on http://msmvps.com/blogs/luisabreu/archive/2008/07/28/book-review-power-shell-pocket-reference.aspx]

Im really happy to have received a copy of this book. Its really a simple, easy to read, concise book which contains all you need to get started with PowerShell. You can easy read the book in 1 or 2 days (that is, if youre reading from cover to cover). If youre near a computer, then you can always try to run the examples and even try some new things on your own (being a concise book, youll find lots of references which you need to explore).

As you might expect, this is not a complete guide to Powershell. You wont also be getting info on how to build custom cmdlets or on how to extend Powershell.

Overall, Id say this is a good reference book that you should have by your side if youre starting working with Powershell. Im giving it 7/10.
