Summary: general terms only
Review: Book itself did not help passing the Exam 70-298. It is limited to just a theory. Exam requires a practical knowledge, not a theory. This book gives a concept of Security which is quite useless for the Exam and an actual configuration.
Rating:
Summary: Wow, so much useless information...
Review: I can't believe how much fluff this book has. Talk about everything and the kitchen sink. There is a thing about going overboard, and this book does it. Not only is this book poorly organized, I would say 75% of it has nothing to do with the Security Design exam.

Summary: Great Book
Review: The MS Training Kit books seem to get a bad rap beacause they don't substitute hands-on experience with spoon fed answers for the exams. Most of them however are useful long after the exam is over and this one is no execption. This book takes a dry subject like security and makes it easy to sit through a study session with it's relavent and readable content. I will recommend this book to other :Security candidates in the future.

Summary: Horrible Book
Review: This book does an atrocious job of preparing you for the 70-298 exam. There are entire topics missing and tons of wordy fluff that seem intended to merely fill pages and make this book heavy. It's practicaly worthless as an exam prep tool. Besides that, it's absolutely boring. I guarantee you won't make it past the first two chapters without snoozing. You're much better off merely browsing Microsoft TechNet for free.

Summary: Thorough Review
Review: Unlike some of the other opinions that have been written regarding this book, I found it highly useful and would certainly recommend it to anyone who does not just want bare memorization material for an exam, but truly desires to learn about Micosoft security. I have three MCSE's, and I have just obtained my MCSE: Security on Server 2003; and, I will keep this book for continued professional reference.
