Summary: Good Read BUT.......
Comment: Personally, I have read a few of the Ground Up Series of books and I do like them. The book is easier to follow than many of the other books out there, However, I have found that the examples do not work when you type them in. That was a source of great fustration to me....

Summary: Superb
Comment: This book begins with a look at how to program COM using raw C++ and then transitions to ATL. This provides a superb foundation in the underlying COM internals so that it is clear how COM works under the covers. After showing how to build a COM server and Client using ATL it discusses the essential COM principals such as IDL, #import, oleautomation data types, error handling, DCOM etc. The chapter on the different threading models is especially good. Finally, it delves into the details of COM+ and builds an entire COM+ sample. The one week chapter is the chapter on events as the code is pretty complicated and the explanation lacking. In summary, this is a great book for learning COM and then a great reference book.

Summary: Mr. Michaelis does not shine.
Comment: I read this book on COM+ and I must say that it is not good. Mr. Michaelis simply does not write correctly. I must say that broken English is fine when chatting with the guys at the office, but wholy unneccessary when in print. But I guess this is a technical book so I should review my problems with the programming. While they are numerous they can best be described as "theoretical." I think the examples are very contrived. It is my opinion that Michaelis does not have a lot of real world experience. Better examples would have elevated my score on this one.
