Enterprise CORBA Reviews

Enterprise CORBA is not so much about doing things in CORBA as it is about doing things in CORBA that are not easy to do, but that have to be done to make a project deployable. This is refreshing. CORBA technology is deep enough that most books concentrate on what CORBA does and does well. The authors of Enterprise CORBA - Jack Woehr, Dr. Dobbs Electronic Review of Computer Books
