This book sets out to provide a concise overview of the current state of, and best practices for, Service Oriented Architecture. While it may achieve that for some managerial readers, it is simultaneously too general for those with more background, and may be too terse for those with less technical understanding.The authors and editors have clearly set themselves the admirable aim of producing a short and concise overview of the field. Unfortunately in the quest for brevity they have ended up with a terse, dry and dense writing style which is very difficult to read. At times it feels almost like a game of "buzzword bingo". I frequently had to re-read sentences several times to understand the authors' intended relationships between the elements, and I'm a very experienced integration architect.At the same time, for a book on architecture there are very few explanatory diagrams, wordy descriptions being used instead. To add insult to injury a few low-value diagrams such as one depicting the cycle of interaction between business and IT change drivers are used repeatedly, when once would be enough.The first chapter provide a overview of service orientation and its key principles, characteristics, goals and organisational implications. This is followed by a chapter on service definition and composition. Ironically this part of the book is is quite repetitive, but manages to omit some key concepts. There's no real concrete explanation of what a service is or does – maybe that's taken as read, but a formal definition and some examples would go a long way. Likewise there's nothing at this point on basic concepts such as service contracts and self-description, synchronous vs asynchronous operation or security.
