Rating: - A hodge-podge of dated material
When this book first came out, though disorganized and overpriced, I thought it one of the Dietels' better efforts since it showed genuine enthusiasm for the subject and a sampling of all of the technologies involved in E-Business programming.

I attempted to contact them about this, but received no answer. I have enjoyed other Dietel books, but this one really falls short of their ... Read More
