An excellent book covering an important niche

Like many web-related technologies XML and its many derivatives have evolved much more quickly than the support from traditional modelling and development tools. As a result many developers creating XML-based applications are doing so with the crudest of tools, and find it very difficult to either exchange ideas with more traditional developers, or to benefit from the strengths of more powerful tools and modelling approaches...

Well written and easy to read

David Carlson has produced a book that discusses how to integrate two important technologies: UML and XML. More than that, the book serves as a primer to both. Even if you already know UML or XML, you'll probably learn something new about each. References are supplied for those who want to learn more. For me, I also found that the book planted seeds for new ideas.The material is presented in a practical way, around a simple...

From all the dozens of books I've purused at the bookstores I can say this is the ONLY high level book about XML apps on the market. This book takes one beyond modelling and into the belly of the beast of real world application production. I've looked at (and unfortunetly...
