If you are developing web services, and are concerned about security issues, this is the book. With lots of working examples, and clear explainations, you will gain knowledge about how to implement security in your Web services.
I highly recommend the book.

This book introduces the toolset from Microsoft to use to build web services on .NET- the WSE,which is now being offered for free at the MSDN web site. I've read some other books by this author and found them helpful. This book did not let me down. It is valuable to any developer looking to build robust and well-architected web services.

I hope Mr. Evjen will put out an updated version of this book when WSE 3.0 hits the scene. Being new to web services I grabbed a used copy to get into WSE. I found this to be a well written book with great examples in both C# and VB (about time!). However, those great examples are using WSE 1 so you will find code that is obsolete. An updated edition with the same plain language explanations and examples would be 5 stars, so keep your eyes open.

This book is really an incredible reference for WSE!!! Not only does it cover all of the areas of the WSE, it is written in a manner that is very easy to read and contains a wealth of really well-written demos (both in C# and VB) that demonstrate each feature of the WSE. If you would like to learn about WSE, this book is an absolute must have. I would have rated it 6 stars if I could.

This is a must have book for any Microsoft developers or architects doing work in the web services space. This book is by far the best reference for using the WSE. After reading the book I couldn't wait to start using everything I learned.

This book is by far the best reference for using WSE. It provides a clear and simple stated understanding of GXA. Well written. It explains which GXA specifications are implemented by WSE, and how WSE actually works. If you do any Web Service development or consume Web Services, you will want this book. Examples are in both VB.NET and C#, and are very useful. Well worth the money!

You can find better resouces on the web rather than buying this book.
