1: Good info.....but
This book contains lots of good info for a person new to SharePoint but I found the "Try It Out" sections to be an exercise in frustration. Many of the "Try It Out" sections do not pick up from where the previous one left off and do not provide instructions on getting to the point where Step 1 of the section can be performed. Very annoying.

2: Very readable, straight to the point
In between Sharepoint for Dummies and the MOSS Administrator Manual is this book - how to actually use SharePoint in the organisation. It has everything you need to know about the different components and what to do with them. A lifesaver!!!

3: Start Sharepoint from here...
I've read a lot of books about Sharepoint and MOSS and actually I can say that this is my personal "top of the list" for ayone who wants to be introduced into the Sharepoint and MOSS world.
The book is simple to read and rich of guided samples, it covers all the aspects you need in order to start working with Sharepoint and MOSS.
If you're a developer that wants to customize the engine, this is not the right book for you... but if you've the needs to learn Sharepoint and to work immediately with it, this is extremely recommended.
As usual, Wrox is a guarantee...

4: Good starting point for soon to be SharePoint Professionals (and a good refresher for the rest of us)
As the title states I find this a great place to start learning or use as a reference. You can never have enough good references!
I found this book to be inline with the other "Beginning" Wrox books. It outlines key concepts within the SharePoint platform and provides examples of how to use those concepts to build team solutions.
From outlining site columns and content types to working with ECS and the BDC this book is sure to provide you with essential SharePoint knowledge to get you going!

5: Must Have for SharePoint Designers
This is the best book on the market for learning how the newest versions of SharePoint can help company's improve business processes and information management.
From getting a solid understanding of content types and site columns (new features within SharePoint) to making use of Forms Services, the reader gains knowledge of how to use these important concepts to create business solutions that are easy to maintain and extend.
Because SharePoint is so open and powerful, easily explaining how to incorporate SharePoint to help a company run its business more efficiently is challenging. To take full advantage of SharePoint, companies will need employees that are not developers (programmers) to embrace the technology. These users will need to know how to utilize SharePoint to meet business objectives, and how to customize the platform (without the need for code). This book is geared for this next generation of SharePoint users (called Designers) - and it delivers a winner.
Great book!
