Excel Power Pivot & Power Query FD (For Dummies) 1st Edition

I'm still in the process of going through this book as it is a learning tool and I definitely want to absorb all that I'm reading. The book is informative and I very much appreciate the bit of history that explains why the power pivot and power query features were brought directly to the users. I'm so happy that I purchased this book because it is a definite must for anyone whose interest in Excel extends beyond the standard usage and who simply wants to know more about this massively powerful program that just doesn't quit in terms of all that it can do.

All good. As are most books in this series. Light as expected.

Fairly informative. It could have covered a little more material.

I am able to lookup all the reference information I need quickly. I don't need to become and expert just get the job done and this book meets my needs.

In page 120 the book says "This calculation simply can't be completed using calculated columns."But of course that It can be calculated and it is simpler than with measures.=[UnitCost]*(if(related(InvoiceHeader[Year])=2007,1,0)-if(related(InvoiceHeader[Year])=2006,1,0))It is unfortunate that the book does not have an email address where we can communicate errors to the author. Thanks to Amazon to provide an alternative to do it.

Great

Another super book! What an awesome way to learn and solve problems!

Easy to follow.
