Excelente trabajo el de Hewitt. El primer capitulo puede ser suficiente para pagar el precio. Cualquier empresa/arquitecto con una iniciativa SOA debe leer este libro.
Completamente recomendado.

This is an excellent book. I have several books in this series and they're all top notch. This one is no exception. I was looking for a good (though not too deep) introduction to Service Oriented Architectures (SOA) and chose this one. I was not disappointed.

The service from the independent supplier through Amazon.com was superb. Lived up to their near 5-star rating. The condition of the book was also right on target.

Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) For Dummies, 2nd Edition (For Dummies (Computer/Tech))
$29.99
Started off very trivial but by Part II had become completely incomprehensible, introducing new terminology without explanation at every line.

Doesn't work at a business or technical level and certainly will not help any business get going with SOA.

Very poorly written book - don't waste your money.

Still searching for a book or website that actually helps someone get going on what looks like it should be a good methodology.

Applied SOA: Service-Oriented Architecture and Design Strategies
$44.99
Too much verbose, disconnected concepts and the writing style is hard to follow - like too many cooks spoil the broth. The book did well to introduce the basics of SOA but failed to connect the dots in terms of practical approaches with patterns and best practices. The content in Part 2 of this book sound a vendor specific material and couple of chapters are just showing less short than a hello world case study.
