If you'd like to learn how to create web services (in particular, using Apache Axis2) and make some sense of various standards like SOAP, WSDL, MTOM, WS-Addressing, WS-Security, WS-Policy, XML Encryption and XML Signature, then this book is for you. Why? First, it has a tutorial style that walks you through in a step-by-step manner. Second, it is concise. There is no lengthy, abstract description. Third, Many diagrams are used to show the flow of processing and high level concepts so that you get a whole picture of what's happening. The first 46 pages are freely available on www.agileskills2.org and you can judge it yourself.

Summary: One of the best hands-on web services tutorials
Comment: This book is a very useful "how-to" for creating web services. If you happen to be using Axis2 and, even better, Eclipse, then the many examples are even more valuable. And if your services need to be secure or asynchronous or have attachments, you get good step-by-step explanations, too.
This was my first major web services project and we needed to use a range of security features for it. This book helped me get up to speed much faster than I would have without it - there's a lot to learn to get your first production web service going: WSDL, object models, WS-Security, public key infrastructure, etc. This book walks you through all of in a way that gives you a reasonable change of getting your own service working. And there are techniques for helping you figure out what the problem is if you can't get it working.
I purchased the pre-publication PDF and there were some parts that could have used better editing.
More presentation on how Axis2 works behind the scenes would have been nice, but there is still lots of good practical material here.

Summary: Very helpful book to learn Axis2
Comment: Before buying this book, I read some other books on web services. It seems that I understood the concept but there was still a big gap to put it in practice. This book comes to save.
This book contains detail steps and instruction to help you to understand the concept easily, but also guide you how to implement it. It likes a live tutor.
Beside, there are some other useful techniques in eclipse that other authors may assume that a reader already know, but in fact if a ready does not know, he/she might get stuck or take time to find some where else.
In addition, the author, Mr. Kent Tong, is a very help person. He enthusiastically guided me when I had questions.
I strongly recommend having this book if someone wants to learn and develop Axis 2 quickly, especially for the beginner with web services or Apache Axis 2.
Thanks for your time.

Summary: A succinct handbook
Comment: The book is composed of a lot of code-snippet and screen shot, each with detailed and succinct comment and explanation. That makes the readers quite easy to follow it step by step, which is useful especially for something needs lots of setting and configuration like web services.
It does fail to cover some important concepts of web services, but there are too many books you can find for that. I really recommend this book to those who like to have hands-on experience of web service as eagerly as I do. I enjoyed it very much!

Summary: Very Useful
Comment: Webservices explained in simple and best way.You may read other big books covering 1000 pages and end up with no written code sample or books discussing all pages on SOA showing no code implementation which will be useful only for Managers ..If you feel you like to try hands on example .Then buy this one.
Still I give 4 stars as book is too tiny and there are so many topics not touched.
