Overview
JAX: Java APIs for
covers the JAX APIs - fundamental for development of Java-based Web service applications as well as other e-Commerce applications requiring the exchange and manipulation of data. The book includes an overview of Web service fundamentals including SOAP, UDDI, and WSDL, all of which will be built upon in later examples. The book then covers the current set of JAX APIs for data processing, for messaging, for writing data to registries and for calling remote applications.
Each API is covered from an architectural and implementation perspective, using real-world examples and case studies throughout to illustrate their usefulness. The author will demonstrate both Web service and traditional JAX applications, giving a complete picture of the uses of JAX. The final chapter looks ahead to new developments and new APIs in progress at Sun.

From Barnes & Noble
The Barnes & Noble ReviewThere's more under the hood of Mac OS X than ever before -- much of it utterly new to longtime Mac users. Fear not. Get Mac OS X Unleashed. This incredibly thorough reference covers Mac OS X both as the latest, greatest, coolest Mac OS ever and as the industrial-strength UNIX system it is.
All the day-to-day stuff is here: using Apple's extensive set of Internet tools, from Sherlock to iTunes; managing printers and fonts; navigating the system (thanks, guys, for that handy list of where the old Apple menu's contents disappeared to).
The emphasis, though, is on the sheer power of Mac OS X. There's BSD 4.4derived UNIX down there, and the Rays dive in headfirst. Learn the right shell commands and you can automate operations on multiple files at once, script graphics file conversions -- you name it. There's also thorough coverage of server/network administration, including a detailed chapter on file and resource sharing with NetInfo.
Mac OS X Unleashed is packed with info you've never seen in a Mac OS book before -- for example, coverage of the open-source MySQL database, providing web services with Apache, and -- for better or worse -- a 130-page command reference! (Bill Camarda)
