XML Web services are the fundamental building blocks in the move to distributed computing on the Internet. Open standards and the focus on communication and collaboration among people and applications have created an environment where XML Web services are becoming the platform for application integration. This book is a fast-moving, concise introduction to XML technologies for all programmers, no matter what their programming language (Java, VB, VBScript, C, C++, Python, and JavaScript), with exercises and solutions in every chapter.

Persons
Tom Myers studied physics in Bogota, Colombia and Buenos Aires, Argentina before receiving his bachelor's degree from St. John's College in Santa Fe, and his Ph.D. in computer science from the University of Pennsylvania. A software developer and consultant, he has been working mostly on Java/XML projects for the past few years; some earlier research in parallelism and in functional programming languages seems to be coming back to life, within XSLT. In addition to joint publications with Alexander Nakhimovsky, he is the author of a book and several articles on theoretical computer science.
