I got this book as a free copy for review. I have two aspects for this book, a. New User of PowerPivot and b. Existing User of PowerPivot.
I'll unfortunately say for later category of users this book is not much worth unless you want to keep it for future reference, in case of leaving PowerPivot technologies for now.
But for the People starting with PowerPivot or want to know about PowerPivot, this book can be really powerful and easy weapon. I found each and every aspect is for learning quickly what needs to be known for working in PowerPivot.
I will request Author to publish a next version in same line but with a little bit more theory and advanced features as well.
