BizTalk Server is a complicated product, so it is natural that several authors would get together to write BizTalk Unleashed. In fact, thirteen authors contributed to the book.
All the subjects are covered, but unfortunately I had to port all the VB6 code samples to .NET. This is not the book’s fault, but it made the early struggle with learning BizTalk more difficult. And some of the chapters, like the RosettaNet and HIPAA chapters, were just recaps of the Microsoft tutorials that are included with the products
On the other hand, the coverage of BizTalk messaging and orchestration was very good. And chapter 16 on integrating orchestration and messaging had several complete examples that brought the two subjects together very well. As one of the two books on BizTalk Server 2002, it provides valuable information for the practicing BizTalk professional. I hope that there will be more information accessible for BizTalk Server 2004.
