There's a book on amazon by Tom Carpenter SQL Server 2008 Administration: Real-World Skills for MCITP Certification and Beyond (Exams 70-432 and 70-450) has anybody used it? There are no ratings for it on the UK or US sites.Rich
I have the book and it is pretty good read. I have not read it all the way through yet. I did not buy it was given to me at a PASS user group meeting. The good thing about is it is current, it was just written and published in 2010. It does have a test engine and flashcards (like all other Sybex books), with some video walkthroughs.
You might also go by the Skills Measured page and check Books Online for the information.
I have used MeasureUp.com that came with a few Exam Cram books I have. It is very good as practice. I think the 70-450 is about $80 for 30-day access. They have very good explanations in the answers, tell you why the wrong answer is wrong.
I might also suggest these 2 books:
