Look for another book.,
This review is from: Amazon Web Services Made Simple: Learn How Amazon EC2, S3, SimpleDB and SQS Web Services Enables You to Reach Business Goals Faster (Paperback)
The title is misleading. In fact, the 2nd page of the book has the title:Amazon Web Services 100 Success Secrets Each section of the book is mostly 1 page long, some 1.2 pages long. Clearly someone was paid for 100 very short essays, like: The Pros and Cons of Cloud Computing The grammar in the book is terrible. It appears a 1st year college student has compiled a 1st draft copy and successfully published it without it being edited. Somewhere in the book I noticed a section with the phrase: "...using it is." and from that I could discern the nationality of the author which makes reading very tidous when you have to stop and re-read the content and try to convert it to English. In my opinion, I got only $5 worth of what I spent on the book, and most of that is in the entertainment I got thinking about what it would be like to sit and listen to the author trying to sell me some product in person without laughing.

I wish I had read the reviews before buying !,
This review is from: Amazon Web Services Made Simple: Learn How Amazon EC2, S3, SimpleDB and SQS Web Services Enables You to Reach Business Goals Faster (Paperback)
This book is indeed very very poorly written, many sentences don't even make any sense, some look like they have been translated by Google Translate and not checked.Many points are inacurate or even wrong. Some services proposed on top of AWS are presented as being AWS. Yes it does look like a patchwork of cut and paste from blogs submitted into Google Translate. Please stop buying this book, and get the OReilly instead.

Don't Buy This Book - Reads Like a Bad Blog....Worse, actually,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Amazon Web Services Made Simple: Learn How Amazon EC2, S3, SimpleDB and SQS Web Services Enables You to Reach Business Goals Faster (Paperback)
If you've ever read a blog and thought "huhh...?" - that's this book is like for over a hundred pages. I met a guy once at a conference who told me his service is to compile blog entries into "books" for marketing purposes. This is like that kind of book, except without editing.See the other review by P. Smith for details
