Summary: Don't buy it unless you use Borland ORB
Review: This book is only useful if u have Borland's ORB. The examples DO NOT RUN without it. Go with SUN documentation if you wonna write truly portable clients

Summary: An excellent reference book.
Review: This is an excellent reference book for Java CORBA programming. It is concise and well-indexed. It is not a "how-to-program CORBA from Java" book. Although it does have a number of good examples and some tutorial sections, Orfali & Harkey's "Client/Server Programming with Java and CORBA" is a better book for programming "how to" information. Similarly, if you are looking for more information about the underlying protocol, Henning & Vinoski's "Advanced CORBA Programming with C++" has better low-level CORBA coverage.

Summary: Technically superficial
Review: This title, it promises to be a guide for whoever wants to learn to use CORBA with Java. Unfortunately already the beginning is not of the best in as behavior a general panning of the two languages ok but throw the reader in a chaos of acronyms no (C. 2). The authors, they should know that a book that is proposed teach something it should have a method. This text doesn't have it. In fact the chapter 5 (The First Java app) it leave the reader with many doubts that they will have filled (perhaps) in the chapter 8 (you after a complete guide to the Api of Corba present like a glossary- chap 6). Finally, after have read this book, I could tell that beyond to have not understood nothing almost (I am a Engineer specialized in new tech) I have had clean feeling to be a total stupid. Thank you
