This is an area of QlikView development that is often sadly overlooked. As a QlikView "gun for hire" I often pick up applications created by other developers and find even the most fundamental design errors made time and time again. It is this lack of attention to detail that can often sour peoples experience of QlikView. Simply put, if the document doesn't look nice people will not want to use it, and if they don't use it then it adds very little value.This book focuses on the little details that can lift an application from being average (or worse) to being an application that makes the information jump off the screen. It promotes many of the same principles that I always preach, such as every detail matters and simplicity is king.The book doesn't try to teach you how to use QlikView or give a holistic approach to dashboard design, there are other titles for these things, but it does focus of every individual detail of what you need to get right on each screen.

Packt has published most of the QlikView books out there, starting with the de facto "QlikView bible" by Garcia and Harmsen, and following up with (a) the substantial books by Stephen Redmond and (b) the thin, richly priced books by Karl Pover [ok], Tim Floyd [bad], Diane Blackwood [bad] and Christopher Ilaqua [bad]."Creating Stunning Dashboards With QlikView" joins the (b) camp, and brings its average up. The book has an appealing informal, enthusiastic style, and talks about (i) dashboard design in general (think Tufte ultra-lite), (ii) QlikView's visual elements, and (ii) concrete QlikView tips. It is open-and-shut too sketchy for my taste - I would have gone for Garcia and Harmsen or Redmond; let me call the three authors "GHR" - but here is a more general reservation. By choosing not to discuss data, only the front-end, CSDQV rules itself out as one's "starter" QlikView book: it has to be the second at least. It is too junior for people who had read GHR, or the Wiley-published "QlikView Your Business". Who is left then - people who had gone for the other (b) titles? A suboptimal route if you ask me, but if you must try it, choose Karl Pover's book as its first leg.

There are no sample code files and exercises files available for this book from the publisher.It can be of some use only when you can practice everything on your own.
