Introducing SQL Server does exactly that; it introduces SQL Server. It concentrates on the core skills professionals need to be successful with SQL Server, using a holistic approach to show how the various parts of SQL Server complement each other. The book is a short and easy read - unintimidating yet sure to please. It avoids the overly-deep approach of other "beginner" books on the topic in favor of getting across what really matters in as short a time as possible.
