Summary: Free whitepapers are better on Internet
Comment: I am the CTO for a medium sized business that focuses on eBusiness solutions and software development. Recently, our company has started dabbling in Web Services development, mainly for integrating different types of applications and datasets more quickly. I wanted a book to really go underneath the hood of some successful large scale web services integration projects. I hurriedly did a search on amazon and found this book. Reading it you realize the book was created in a hurry as well. Each chapter consists of a series of quotes from some company's tech guru bragging about how great their web services project went, then the author chimes in and summarizes the quotation. This goes on and on throughout the book and each project is refernced in such general terms ("we had great success integrating application A with app B using web services") that you really don't learn anything. If you want to hear success stories w/o any tech knowledge gained - I recommend downloading the countless whitepapers available on the internet for free.
This book is also very small and it uses a 15 pt font so you will be finished in an hour or so. No meat to this book. I give it one star simply because it looks bleeding edge sitting in my bookcase in my office.

Summary: Two John Edwards!!
Comment: Apparently, there are at least two John Edwards. One, the web-savvy bizness man from Arizona. The other, a slick, baby-faced Senator (ne trial lawyer) from North Carolina. I wonder why there are two? Just like the two Americas!!! And Bessie's two Bobos!!! Two is bettah dan one!!!
