Pretty much the best book out there for intermediate-advanced PowerShell scripters.While I don't think it's the best for rank beginners (for that, I'd recommend Windows PowerShell 3.0 Step by Step by Ed Wilson: http://www..com/Windows-PowerShell-3-0-Step-Developer/dp/0735663394/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1426695008&sr=1-1&keywords=powershell+step+by+step ), but it's definitely the *second* PowerShell book you should buy, and probably the one you'll keep closest at hand.
As its name implied, it covers the topic in depth. Good for reference. But if it can provide all the scripts as appearred in the book in pure text format, it will much easiler for us than copy it from the PDF ebook.
This book is by far the best powershell book for the intermediate or professional I have seen to date. The book covers many admin topics and is a great source for any IT professional. I have the book all tabbed out and sitting on my office desk.
Very in depth book. Definitely a great reference manual written by the industry's top powershell experts.
