Avoid

This book is written for idiots by idiots. The pampering tone and the simplistic examples, that are neither valid nor enlightening, makes me wanna puke....

SOA solves everything, if we just disregard complexity and security. Oh, and yes, EAI is bad for you (and wildly different from a SOAP/WSDL ....). Sigh. Even I can produce better trash than this. As a technocrat, it gives me nothing. As a manager, it is full of techno-babble, with examples that doesn't fit business reality and so simplistic solutions, that if a CIO proposed them, he would get thrown out.

And painfully boring written as well. Nearest trashbin is too kind a fate for this piece of trash.
