I can't say that I read a technical book from cover but I've come pretty close with this one. In addition to the information that I can really use, ( and I mean everyday ) what impressed me most was the practical and meaningful tips about dealing with the day to day 'crises' a SQL server developer faces. The book is already well dog eared as it's a constant companion of mine at work, in the car, and at home. I highly recommend this book. It's the best on the subject I've seen. I've learned things about SQL Server I didn't even know existed.
