This is a superb book. She admits it's meant for beginners - not developers - and that's true, but in fact there is a tremendous amount that can be done without writing any code.
I've been a SharePoint developer for over 7 years and when I say this book is good, I mean it. So, why would someone like ME buy - and benefit from - this book? SharePoint is an application space (and platform) that covers a lot of ground. Having worked on SharePoint since version 2003, it has been impossible to cover all that SharePoint has to offer.
HOWEVER, Vanessa manages to cover the landscape without skimping on the details. For me, this helped me quickly become conversant on areas I just haven't had the time to get into. For the beginner, it can be used as a reference or a tutorial.
As a "for dummies" book, it assumes you know next to nothing, yet manages to gently bring you up to speed without boring you, and without going to fast - an amazing feat for any author.
Another person rated the book poorly because they didn't like the SharePoint product. That is an unfair criticism of the book.

A great place to start if you are a user/owner of a site and are new to SharePoint. Assumes nothing, and is not overly technical. I recommend reading more than one books about SP, it is so complex, and this is a good one.
