(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Microsoft .NET XML Web Services Step by Step (Paperback)
This book is basically a very well written and understandable regurgitation of the web services content contained in the online help. Far from being a bad thing the book is still very much worth the price in that you can avoid the poorly written and organized online docs and get straight to business. Examples are concise, correct, and written in both C# and VB.NET. Covers all the basic topics you will need to know about to write web services in .NET that are consumed by .NET clients. The books weaknesses are that it doesn't go into any advanced topics and only covers the most pressing of intermediate topics (error handling, security, etc.) but then again other books don't even cover these. There is no coverage of writing truly platform independent web services that could be consumed by clients in other languages. Given the content presented here it's possible but to do it properly you really need to have some knowledge of XML, WSDL, and XML Schema which this book doesn't cover at all. In summary a good book for someone on a completely Microsoft platform that just wants to get a fairly straight-forward application using web services up and running. Intermediate or advanced readers with previous web services experience will probably be disapponted.

4.0 out of 5 stars very good intro to web services, Jan 5 2004
This review is from: Microsoft .NET XML Web Services Step by Step (Paperback)
I found this book very good for an intro to web services
This books also gives good tips to debuggin in web services which I have not found in any book. All the examples work
except for the example which demonstrates integrated security,
which is a real shame.
This book took me 3 days to go through. I am very pleased with
the content.
As with most books this book lacks a real world implementation
at the end.

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommended for people who has (or will have) VS.NET., April 27 2003
This review is from: Microsoft .NET XML Web Services Step by Step (Paperback)
If you have a knowledge of VB or C#, this book does a pretty good job teaching you how to create your own Web service and use other out there on the Internet, even if you don't have prior experiences.

This book assumes you have VS.NET. If you don't have it, it won't be helpful. VS.NET makes using and especially creating Web Services easy and this book tells you how easily you can do it.

Here are why I think the book is good.

* Presentation is clear. You'll know what you'll be learning in each chapter.

* Sample code is provided on the web.

* No talking down.

* The authors really mean "step-by-step". Little rooms for mistakes.

Bad things.

* Because the book explains the basics, you may be able to find all the information on the Web. You'll probably need more time searching and filtering them, though.
