Review of BEA WebLogic Workshop: Building the Next Generation Web Services Visually (Paperback)

I am new to workshop. After reading this book, I got good idea how to write web services under workshop. However, this book is only for beginner level only. If you are familiar with workshop already, this book is Not for you.

This book guides you to learn webshop step by step for most of the core webshop functionalities(eg, JMS, EJB, database controls). However, sometimes, it lacks of detail explanation(that's why I only give it 4 stars).

If you are new to webshop, this book is for you.
