The authors convey not only the nuts-and-bolts of how Apple's tools work but also the philosophy behind the tools. This is essential reading for anyone coming to the Apple world from other platforms. We do things differently over here and understanding the philosophy is every bit as important - perhaps more so - than knowing which buttons to press. I commend this book to anyone starting or modernising an Apple deployment. Fraser Speirs Head of Computing and IT Cedars School of Excellence, Greenock, Scotland
