Not thorough-mostly info available for free from Microsoft Office Online1
Skip it-Real basic stuff already available for free from Microsoft online and covered in more useful detail. Definitely not up to the title Sharepoint Bible. There are much better Sharepoint resources for your money that cover scenarios that represent real world tasks you are likely to come across that aren't just a single point & click in the Sharepoint. http://www.amazon.com/Real-World-SharePoint-2007-Indispensable/dp/0470168358 is one example I do recommend.

Good reference for End Users3
I was reccomended this book by a collegue as the only book I would need to get up to speed on MOSS. That was not a very good reccomendation. It is very weak on the setup, configuration and Share Service Provider aspects of managing a MOSS environment. It also has nothing of relevance on doing Web Parts.
What is is very strong in is end user tasks, such as building and maintaining list and document libraries. It also has some great content on customizing the envrinment and branding. The SharePoint Designer is also introduced as well.
If you are a normal office worker who is responsible for maintaining the content for your group or team, this is an excellent book. If you are a network admin or a developer this would be a good book to have, but do not expect anything very deep.

Comprehensive vision3
I started working on sharepoint since 1 year almost , and waiting for issued rich reference for all the ideas and components related to each field supported by practical examples help to handle the most wode issues experienced from standalone to larg servers farm.
