Rating:  - Best reference guide for designing your SQL Server database
This guide not only provides references on SQL Server syntax, but also contains a brief review of best practices with database design. Includes all normal forms with database normalization, indexing, and data integrity.
Rating: - Best IT Book I Ever Read
This book is an amazingly clear and concise book, especially for the "non-gurus" among us.

Rating: - Great for reading and as a reference guide
Very complete and illustrating. I am happy to have it on my desktop.
Rating:  - Very Good Book
This book is very good one, I learned a lot, ESPECIALLY about T-SQL, its sectioned in a good manner and the writer language is easy, the only negative point about the book is the briefness of explaination about (INDEXES) which i consider a very very important topic in the SQL in general.
Thanks a lot Mr. Neilsen
Rating: - Very Good Book for SQL Server DBA
Currently I am preparing for the exam 70-229 and I studied a lot of SQL Server 2000 Books. But "SQL Server 2000 Bible" shows me the way to learn. It becomes a real bible for me. While I am reading this book I am able to understand what he is trying to say, but it's not happened in other books. I really appreciating his writing skills.
