The print format of this book is good, this convinces me to believe the book content is good.However, I got lost quickly after reading a few chapters. The author mentioned a lot of concepts, but he had never explained the concepts, I have to search MSDN to find out what and how. Author showed a lot of pictures of operations, but he skipped many steps to show how to get there. I have to give up this book, it is waste of my time.

Book serves as a basic introduction to windows server 2019. Has some typing errors. Written in a bland style with lots of repetition with each section ending with "now let's learn about... ". Nothing you couldn't learn from the internet and shouldn't be priced at £30. I'd save your moneyThis being said. If you have never used a windows OS this book could be useful
