Mastering Identity and Access Management with Microsoft Azure: Empower users by managing and protecting identities and data, 2nd Edition

If you took out all the screenshots from this book, I think there would be only 50 pages left with vague instructions that breeze through a light hands-on how-to of the various topics. There's little explanation of the tech and I don't see much learning happening with this format. I was hoping for something more organized than digging through Microsoft's online documentation, but I think the free online info would be the best place to learn this material.

The lab focus is nice although not sure if it is relativistic to what individuals can actually do from home and on the cheap. Otherwise the content was consumable and relevant. My big pet peeve here is I have noticed with a lot of Packt books and I have many, the quality of the proof reading is way off and there are tons and tons of typos peppered throughout. This I have noticed is a trend with nearly all their books. Typos and poor sentence structure in the sheer volume present in this book and many of their other titles reduces overall credibility of the publisher and the author.
