Only just got this book - By: LAB, 16 Sep 2008
I only got the book today & I have only reallly flicked through it.

The first chapter is fantastic & I am so pleased to see someone using syntax diagrams - which start to appear in the 2nd chapter & which are used in appendices.

It talks a little about JSON & moves pretty quickly on to how to use JSON securely.

Including the index it's a 155 pages of highly readable information. A good size for curling up with or reading on a long train journey.

It hasn't been padded out with an extra 150 pages of anecdotes, author humour or inane examples.

This book requires you engage & use your brain, rather than requiring you to switch your brain off under the onslaught of author inanities that too many books of this genre suffer from.
