Title: Professional Biztalk (Programmer to Programmer) by Scott Woodgate, Stephen T Mohr ISBN: 1861003293 Publisher: Wrox Press Inc Pub. Date: January, 2001 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $49.99 |

Summary: Best available BizTalk book, but still unsatisfying
Comment: The authors do the best they can working from Microsoft's grossly inadequate product documentation. BizTalk is a complicated product, and yet Microsoft has made very little information available about how it actually works. This book reflects that: the authors seem well-versed on accomplishing specific programming tasks, but they impart very little knowledge of BizTalk internals or architecture.
The examples are good and the coverage of the material is comprehensive. However, the text is rather long-winded, and at times material could be expressed much more succinctly. Also, I would have liked to have seen more "how-to" examples as opposed to long-running sample applications that span multiple chapters.
As usual, though, Wrox outclasses the other technical publishers with the best book yet on BizTalk.
Rating: 5
Summary: As Complete as it can be
Comment: Finally, Wrox's complete BizTalk book. As complete as the product itself, nothing less! This book will take you, as either a developer or an administrator (or both!), through all facets that makes a successfull BizTalk Server installation.
As with previous Stephen book, this one takes a case-study through most of the book and complement it with the new features or the chapter. You will learn to leverage each of those functionality in order to achieve our case-study project. Also usual, this book contains a lot of very technical knowledge, knowledge found deeply inside the BizTalk server with a big touch of experience, all given to the readers in this book!
Rating: 2
Summary: Somewhat useful but frustrating
Comment: This book has lots of useful technical information and the authors know their subject well. The book however, isn't well suited for those of us who like learning by hands-on examples and/or appreciate the quick start approach. Though Biztalk is a messaging product, I'm on chapter 5, page 256, and the authors haven't yet used an example that has sent a single message. So far the book is based on one main example that attemps to cover too many points. Unfortunately the example has typos and doesn't compile - even using the downloaded code. It would be much more effective to start with a couple of "Hello World" like examples to quickly illustrate the product functionality.
