This book is no more than a rewrite of the OMG specifications (which cost nothing) and a poor one, at that. Must be dangerously close to violating copyright rules too. Complete waste of time.
If you bought this book to learn CORBA programming, then good luck. Most of the information seems to be from the OMG web pages. Not a single example of a CORBA implemention. This is one of those books you'll soon see for $.99 at the grocery store.
As other reviewers have pointed out, the content of this book is lacking; in addition, the organization of concepts within it is poor, and there are grammatical errors throughout. The author and proofreader should both be ashamed.
Corba great language! Terrible book!Why do you think eBay sells the for $ 1.00 and sometimes don't bring any bids at that price.A real money and time waste!
Never have I seen someone plagerize someone elses work like this! I've actually heard this guy speak and it sounds as though he's only made it through life stealing off of the effort of others. Definitely and 'not recommended' reading.
