This book is the virtually identical to "DCOM Networking With Visual J++" from the same author and publisher. Both books are content-free and contain only vague discussions of general resource/development planning issues that have nothing to do with Java or CORBA.

I expected a book on CORBA implementation using Java. but instead I found this to be more on project management in general than enything else.

This book is basically useless if you need help with CORBA Networking with Java. I agree with the reviewer in Toledo Ohio. This is "virtually identical to "DCOM Networking With Visual J++" from the same author and publisher" It's a waste.

This book is not a CORBA technical reference, but is a CORBA book for project management as the author correctly defined. And as a book for project management, this is a very good textbook. If you are a project manager, read it before your schedule delays or your presentation receives questions that you cannot answer. It's not fair to look for technical details in this book. Programmers should look for something else, but those who are responsible for the entire project including politics and relations in the company must read this book!! Even if your project has nothing to do with CORBA, this is a good text book for a systems engineers, systems analysts or project management.

I looked over this book in the store. Seems to have absolutely nothing to do with Networking, CORBA or Java. Also, has anyone noticed that every book by this author has gotten terrible reviews ?
