Negative Positive
Title: High level, very repetitive and too verbose.
Review: I am a J2EE developer working in a telco company.I was looking for a good introductory book to SOA.Browsing amazon web pages i found "Enterprise SOA" book. Comments are good it is published from manning and it has only 280 pages.I wish i would not bought it.Contents are too high level, it is very repetitive and too verbose.Authors use verbose scenarios even to describe very easy concepts forcing you to read about 25 lines for something that someone else would have explained with 5 lines.Very detailed diagrams promise interesting contents but they are only there to support banal concepts.The book says it's targeted "for both business people and technologists"I'm afraid it's only for business people who don't want to be bothered with IT medium-level details.I suggest developers to skip this book and go for something else.
Is the review positive or negative?
