Some nice basic information, but LOTS of holes
I purchased this book based upon first glance in the store. It talked about a step by step project example that would provide me with the jumping off place I needed to work with the CCK and Views modules.

After the first step in the project in the third chapter, they never picked up the project again. The CCK tutorial tells you how to create a custom content type but not how to use it. There are several places where they describe a task in the lesson, but it just does not jive with Drupal (Page 96 copy the main CSS file from one the zen folder to the sub-theme folder. It does not tell you which .CSS file is the main one. There is no file named main.css) There are additional mistakes, and unfortunately they have not addressed them on the books site. The topics they cover are a good selection, I kind of wish they had covered less of them and paid more attention to the detail that would take an OK book and turn it into a great one.
There is some good basic information, but this is not the book that Dries Buytaert makes it out to be in his forward -
