Review: Love the content. Love the style. This is within arms reach any time I am working with DAX. - Looked into this because it was recommended by Maven Analytics whose training vids are awesome. I love this book. Great for learning and for a reference tool. I appreciate that they really stress learning the underlying concepts/theory instead of just giving cookie cutter patterns to use.
Review: Amazing Book - I have been reading this book for 5 months. I am not finished. I spend a half hour every day. Marco Russo and Alberto Ferrari are teachers and very good ones. There is so much effort put into this book it feels like they actually care about you and your DAX journey. I have gotten so much out of this book. Though I can't say that I truly understand it. Yet I see that my DAX has improved quite a bit. With many mysteries still remaining. I am just an average person trying to be a bit above average and I thank the authors for helping me in my quest. I highly recommend this book. Though if I were starting off from scratch I would read Matt Allington's book Supercharge Power BI and possibly Power Pivot and Power BI by Rob Collie and Avichal Singh though that book is a bit older. In summation: my lack of understanding is my issue, the book itself is extremely comprehensive and well written. So I will continue on my DAX journey and hopefully will continue to improve as I make my way through the final 3rd of the book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The most holy text of the DAX religion...
*by A***S on June 2, 2020*

Reading this book makes me realize how little I know about the things I thought I knew. I've been writing DAX for years, having started with PowerPivot (no spaces in the name, that's how old) for Excel 2010, and in my job I still find new, interesting problems to solve. This book is an amazing reference for anyone interested in pushing the calculation envelope in DAX and their models. I've built models spanning billions of records with the expert guidance this book provides. I would almost consider this a holy book of the DAX religion. If you ever wanted someone to explain why god created CALCULATE() and how we should observe it daily in our lives, this is the book, and the Italians preach adeptly. I'm a big believer, and you will be too.
