"POWERSHELL" is Microsoft's first recognition of the value of administrative scripting and automation, providing Windows administrators with a consistent, powerful way to automate Windows and other Microsoft server products (such as Exchange Server). In this groundbreaking book, scripting gurus Don Jones and Jeffery Hicks teach you PowerShell from the ground up: You'll learn about its underlying technologies, its flexible scripting language, all the built-in "cmdlets" included with the new shell, and you'll learn enough of the .NET Framework to be effective in PowerShell scripting. This is your opportunity to stay on the leading edge of Microsoft Windows administrative scripting, from the world's most recognized and popular scripting authors.
Don Jones has written dozens and dozens of books and ebooks on information technology topics, and is perhaps most well-known in that space for his "Month of Lunches" series, published by Manning. Don's recently branched out into topics like business management, instructional design, and self-improvement/motivational, along with launching books in science fiction and fantasy. Don lives in Downtown Las Vegas, Nevada, is a huge fan of Disney Parks, and loves Figment best of all.
