5.0 out of 5 stars Fragmented but almost comprehensive, 29 Feb 2004
This review is from: Programming Microsoft® .NET XML Web Services (Pro-Developer) (Paperback)
What do I like about this book? Well it explains web services and how to implement them and even includes good code examples. It's written in the witty style so beloved of geeks who love their job and works well as a reference book. It does cover pretty much everything there is to know about web services at some point in the book.

So what don't I like? Well it's not a tutorial - not a problem in itself but it does zoom past certain topics rather quickly. For example, how to implement DIME - quite useful for those of us currently trying to scale client-server apps that use BLOBs. Also explains security concepts but doesn't give a guide to a security framework.

However I can't bring myself to drop any stars because it does exactly what it says on the cover and does it well. Besides, if you're trying to become a web services guru with the help of one book then you're clearly nuts - although this would be a good place to start anyway.

1.0 out of 5 stars Worst book on .net web services ever, 23 Feb 2005
By Sunil Kumar Singh - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Programming Microsoft® .NET XML Web Services (Pro-Developer) (Paperback)
This is a total disaster. The authors don't know how to present material for readers to understand. Examples are half cooked and mixed up between soap 1.1 and soap 1.2.

1.0 out of 5 stars Confusing and rehash of documentation., 22 Mar 2005
By Joe - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Programming Microsoft® .NET XML Web Services (Pro-Developer) (Paperback)
The book is very confusing. Not clear and concise. Several of the chapters seems to be rehash of documentation meant to increase the size of the book.
