Reviews
"Although in a boxing
ring this book would be a welterweight, weighing in at a lean 330 pages, the
real punch is delivered by the heavy content of real world practical solutions
and the book’s focus on the “must know” topics...The writing
style is casual
and creates an environment much like mentoring during a typical project. The
flow and the layout of the book are very logical and present the information
in the sequence most likely to be used on a real project...Taming Jaguar by
Michael Barlotta and Jason R. Weiss comes with my highest recommendations for
any developer attempting to master the complexities of EAServer. I look forward
to reading some of the chapters again and have no reservation of giving my full
endorsement to this book."
