Typical Wrox product.....

Wrox books tend to occupy a particular niche in the market. Wrox' strategy seems to be to be early into the marketplace with a book on a bleeding edge topic. Their 'Early Adopter' series is particularly aimed at this market, but so are many of their books. If something is wrong or superceded, Wrox will publish another book on the same topic, usually a bunch more books on the topic.Wrox also tends to publish books with many authors. This makes their books spotty, though in theory it ensures expert knowledge of a wide range of topics. In practice I don't find it so. Certain chapters in any Wrox book will be effectively unusable.The speed comes at a price in terms of proofreading and to the useful life of the books they publish. When I purchase a Wrox book I know what I'm getting. It's a book with a short useful life which will help get me started quickly on bleeding edge topics at the cost of some frustration and skullsweat.Typically I will replace a Wrox book later on my learning curve when O'Reilly and other more careful publishers come out with their books. There is a place for books like these. Even if they aren't 100% accurate, they are timely and are rarely completely useless. I usually don't recommend them for beginning technologists for that reason.This book was useful when I bought it but has now almost reached it's sell-by date.

Must Buy ....

I find the book very good , filtering out actual information from hype associated with the latest buzz words like Web Services , UDDI , WSDL etc.It is a book meant for people who have good grasp on J2EE technologies and kind-of Java gurus and would like to move on to the next technological break-through(I really call Web Services a break-through).The book takes the readers in a very logical journey, explaining the concepts nicely. Chapters I found very useful include :1) "Health Care Case study" 2) "Web Service Enabling J2EE Applications" 3) "SAP and Web Services" that talks about the SAP Java Connector(JCo).To keep things short and simple the book is an excellent buy for Java developers wanting to move to Web Services....
