This book absolutely drops the ball on the attachment blocking and programming restriction settings built into Outlook 2002. No coverage. Given these are on by default (and can't easily be changed by users using Outlook on Exchange), this is a huge gaping hole in coverage. After buying this book, and realizing it didn't cover this, I checked a couple of other big books on Outlook and see they do cover it. I haven't reviewed them closely enough to recommend another book though.
Also, for most users in a business setting, a lot of this book will have minor (or larger) inconsistencies with how you use Outlook if you connect to Exchange. Most of the book is written assuming you are a home user connecting to an internet email account, not a business user connected to Exchange server. Outlook has a lot of differences in these two settings and the Exchange based coverage is limited to a few chapters near the end.
