This title, it promises to be a guide for whoever wants to learn to use CORBA with Java.Unfortunately already the beginning is not of the best in as behavior a general panning of the two languages ok but throw the reader in a chaos of acronyms no (C. 2).The authors, they should know that a book that is proposed teach something it should have a method. This text doesn't have it. In fact the chapter 5 (The First Java app) it leave the reader with many doubts that they will have filled (perhaps) in the chapter 8 (you after a complete guide to the Api of Corba present like a glossary- chap 6).Finally, after have read this book, I could tell that beyond to have not understood nothing almost (I am a Engineer specialized in new tech) I have had clean feeling to be a total stupid. Thank you
