Rating:  Summary: Overall an A+ Review: This book covers the planning, development and implementation of ColdFusion MX web applications from end-to-end. While I am expert in ColdFusion, my colleages are not; regardless, we are able to share this book and learn from it and use it as a reference to our conversion to the MX version of ColdFusion.
Rating:  Summary: Great book - Good Reference for the new features of MX Review: This is the first book I've seen that tries to go beyond ColdFusion syntax and is definitely geared toward the intermediate developer. It does not focus on the basics like all the others but rather gives real-world examples and approaches. I liked this book a lot, though I can find no use for the tag reference (adds extra 200 pages). The XML and Web-Services chapter was easy to understand and so was the application architecture chapter. I did not like the caching chapter which I thought was missing some info about software like xcache.
Rating:  Summary: Great Book Review: Very well organized and easy to use. And the sample code actually works unlike other CF books.
Rating:  Summary: Wow! Finally a book about CF improves my coding!!! Review: Wow! I just started to work with MX from CF 5 and was worried about how well I would make the transition. Picked this book up and already I can see a marked improvement in my MX programming. Book was easy to follow and well thought out. I have read some articles and bought some code from author Neil Ross and he didn't disappoint here. Great book!!!!!!!This book is not like other books that come with a cd where the code doesn't even work. The site had all the code from the book and real working examples. Why are you not buying this book this second?!?!?! Go...hurry before they are all gone.
