This book is meant for those beginners who have access to PeopleSoft and are interested in getting their feet wet in PeopleSoft in a matter of days. This book cuts to the chase (pardon the cliche) and tells you what option to click on when the App Designer menu opens, what icons to use and how to get started right away ! I completed the book in about a week's time by spending an hour on it everyday. I can now 'talk' PeopleSoft. But it does not cover PeopleCode (it states clearly that it does not, in the introduction) and yes, it is Version 7.5. There are some typos but any attentive reader can handle those. Read this book and then go on to any advanced PeopleSoft Developer's book. That experience will be much better. I tried to read an advanced book first, did'nt work. Read this one first.
