Summary
In Mastering Windows Server 8, best-selling author Mark Minasi explores every nook and cranny of the essential features of the new version of Microsoft's flagship network operating system to provide the greatest amount of information to be found in any book on the market. Not only does he thoroughly cover the features IT professionals need to know and understand, but he tells it like it is--providing workarounds for things that don't quite work as they should and describes in detail many undocumented features. This is the book that Windows administrators will keep within easy reach.
