Best Source for SSIS hands-on training, 2008-08-27
I have another SSIS book and had been using this book more (almost 80% of the time) each time I need to reference or even look for how-tos.
Very informational and the hands-on training helped me move become an intermediate user right away. I just hope they've put more emphasis on more advanced real-world concepts on hands-on training.

 Half-star off for a questionable title, but beyond that, a gem for those new to SSIS, 2008-05-01
There is no question that the title should clearly indicate that this is a book for those new to SSIS. (And considering SSIS is such a quantum leap from DTS, there are MANY folks at that stage).
However, the book deserves 4-5 stars for what it provides. Giving the book 1-star, because of the title, detracts from the true value of the book. There aren't many books that contain full hands-on exercises. If someone is fairly new to SSIS, THIS is the book to get.
This is the closest I've seen to an exercise-driven training manual, in commercial trade paperback form. There are a series of 8-10 page walk-throughs on such topics as aggregation, processing dupes, loading SCDs, pivoting source data, ADO enumerators, etc.
In my opinion, the entire Database Professional Series from Osborn McGraw Hill is very strong.
If someone already knows the fundamentals of SSIS and wants to go to the next level, get the Wrox Expert SSIS book.

 Good starter book, 2008-02-15
This book helped me get started with SSIS...figure out some basic stuff. But it left me hanging on the details, best practices, integration with applications, etc. It basically walks you through building a bunch of thin-functionality examples of the various components.
If the book re-described itself as a getting-started book, I'd give it high praise and more stars...but the phrases "in depth", "learn to maximize", "extensive", etc, should have been omitted from the book description.
