 Excellent book for Sharepoint Developers
This is a great book for developers new to Sharepoint development. Covers the basics for coding with the api.
 Good for updating skillset from 2003
This book is exactly what I needed to bring me up-to-date on the code side of SharePoint 2007. Having a considerable amount of 2003 development under my belt, I was able to use this book to bring me up to speed on the new API features. I found the sections on list events, workflows, and web parts to be the most helpful.
 Avoid, the few items of use not worth the price or trouble finding
This book is layouted the same as the SDK, however the SDK contains more information. You do get a huge amount of long tables that give a one sentence description of the properties and methods of the objects, not much of a use.
Examples are worthless command-line programs which show how some methods are called but don't really show why you would use them or even the a proper way of using them, they are like the tables of descriptions just fillers.
One thing I was looking for was programming examples on features instead I get a command line program on how to use the write statement to list all the active features on a site. That basically describes this book, alot of filler information and information that has minimal practical use.
 A Book that developers need!!!
I've been looking for a book for SharePoint developers and until finding this book I hadn't found any. Everything on the market is for administrators or really basic programming tasks. This book covers everything from Web Parts to Web Services to the BDC. It's a one-stop shop for all the coding tasks you'll need as a MOSS programmer.
Regarding the bad reviews earlier, did you guys even read the book?
 Sharepoint 2007 Underwhelmed Unleashed
Nothing in here that is not on msdn or googled. They even reprinted some of the errors!! Examples are weak and just reprints of existing info.
Too bad... a disapointmnet of the unleashed series.
