Read this book first
This is an excellent book for learning Power BI. It was an easy read. It will get you up to speed quickly than any other books. The reason I gave it 4 starts because the book is pricey. I highly recommend it.

Not very in Depth
End up using google a lot more than the book
Louise Anderson –
The information is okay, but there are instances of missing words, incorrect terminology (might be Power BI version), and just a terrible print job. The “smudged print” happens throughout the book.

For those wanting to make a quick start in Power BI, I cannot recommend this book more. You can read it in a less than a week and be confident enough to start creating visualisations.

This is the first version from 2018There have been two more versions since this versionNone of the uploads for the first version work – avoid this book and go for the latest one 🙁

Reasonable book for a quick start but definitely very light and as such does the job but you run out of details very, very quick, 48 hrs for me. So as a quick start it’s done its job, longevity though, not guaranteed, I’ve passed the book on to someone else for their quick start into the subject.
