It's great to see that QlikView now has the quality reference guide that it deserves. The book has a linear easy to follow structure so those who are new to QlikView can pick it up, but it also has many advanced tips so even experienced developers will learn new things. Its hands on approach and attention to detail makes it an essential reference.

García & Harmsen's "QlikView 11 for Developers" has set the bar for QlikView guides. Both the content and writing style in this book are of the highest quality. In whole, this is an excellent reference book created by real QlikView practitioners. I will be recommending it to my students and clients.
