I can't speak to the other commenter's difficulty with the examples as I've not really worked with them yet, but I can say for sure that the prose content has been invaluable to me in understanding both the XML landscape in general and the Java implementations in specific.


The five stars are intended to offset the one-star temper tantrum so that casual readers of this page won't see an overall one-star rating and move on, which would be an injustice. If not for that, I would probably knock off one star for the high price. But I get the content with my Safari subscription and physical copies are readily available from used-book vendors for much less, so I'm satisfied.


Thanks to Mr. McLaughlin & O'Reilly for this helpful resource.
