Summary: great book
Comment: It's really a great book although it's out of publish now.Many feature included database connection pool,ISAPI thread synthronize...that's wonderful for serious web developper. Of course I like the author's english.it's about 200 pages only but I won't escape a word(Everybody know right now when we got a book from Wrox,it's always more than 1000 pages and bad organized)

Summary: A bit disapointed.
Comment: I was a bit disapointent in the book. I thought it could have covered more. It is only 190 or so pages of real material. It does not cover nearly enough about cookies or session management.

Summary: Good, but not enough 'real' filter coverage.
Comment: Like many ISAPI books, this one falls into a trap of weak coverage of filters. This is really what I purchased the book for, since the SDK documentation is so poor in this area. Unfortunately, this book didn't help much, either. The filter examples, although somewhat helpful, do not deal with one of the most difficult topics of filter architecture - namely, dynamic content manipulation. Instead, the author chose a simpler example, similar to the SDK UCASE example, which did not involve manipulation of the data length.
I also found appendices B (HTML tags reference) and C (HTTP reference) to be quite off-topic for the book. I would rather have saved 25% off the price of the book to remove these appendices, since the information in them is readily available online.
The coverage of ISAPI extensions is more well done than the rest of the book. The examples are thorough and have some meat to them.
Of course, the final short point of the book is that it deals with IIS 1.0. This means no mention of the IIS 4 Metabase, and some obsolete information. Unfortunately, there is really no more recent alternative.
