The Only Book That’s Completely Focused on Maximizing the Business Value of SharePoint 2010 Solutions
Essential SharePoint® 2010 approaches Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 from a strict business value perspective, explaining exactly how to plan and implement SharePoint solutions to achieve superior business results.
The authors are leading enterprise SharePoint consultants and draw on their unsurpassed experience to focus on the SharePoint features that offer the most real-world value. You’ll find practical advice about how to succeed with knowledge management, business intelligence, and process improvement, and how to derive value from new innovations such as social tagging and mashups.
The book includes comprehensive, “in the trenches” guidance on planning, architecture, governance, training, and other key issues most SharePoint books ignore. The authors identify success factors, intangibles, and “gotchas,” helping you systematically reduce project risk and time-to-value ratio. Learn how to
Whether you’re a business leader, IT manager, architect, analyst, developer, or consultant, this book will help you tightly align SharePoint projects with business strategy to deliver outstanding results.
So I had all the technical how to books, and some of them covered some governance and planning, but I was left wanting more. I hoped this book would fill in the gaps and it did.
The biggest problem I have run into with SharePoint is that there is not enough planning and governance surrounding the use of it. I have been in a lot of environments that started their SharePoint initiatives with a plan that was no more that "Hey why don't we throw SharePoint up and see what it can do". Suddenly those curious individuals are using it to share documents. The word slowly spreads that it is available and more users start using it.

This book provides a good insight on governance and planning for 2010 but lacks on the overview. If you are looking for anything in depth on sharepoint features then this is not the book but if you'r looking for strategy and planning then its a great resource.
A good book to have going for client meetings and implementation.
Essential SharePoint 2010 provides a well written overview of what you need to know for standing up SP2010. While other books may delve into the nitty gritty of SharePoint particulars, this book provides a solid background for the functions that the SharePoint platform provides.
In addition to the easy to read screenshots (not all books make the screenshots easy to read!), I found many of the tables helpful and organized in a way that I could use them for our implementation. The Key Points at the end of the chapter reminded me of sections that I may have "glazed over" while reading.
I'm not an IT guy or a SharePoint guru, but I will be doing a lot of end-user training. This book provided me a very strong basis to start from and I'm sure it will be a useful resource going forward.
