Good book to understand the e-business technologies
Most reviews dealing with this book relate on 2 points: - how great it is - how poorly edited it is The book web site " www.ebusinessrevolution has similar reviews. I would like to propose another view : This book is very good but adress only a specific public : - non technical people willing to understand e-biz related technologies and architecture - IT people willing to get a general survey on e-biz with a strong emphasis on technologyObviously, the book is the best documented survey on the technical side of e-biz, it covers all its component and after reading it you'll understand why is JAVA so hot and XML so promising and how it works
On the other side, you will not be more knowledgeable about any business models or how you build you build your site to anticipate for performance deterioration. The "hello i'm on hte web to e-biz" framework is so obvious (by now, may be not the writing of the book) that it is not even relevant, also, the chapter on marketing is very limited.
The next edition of the book should focus on its strenghts : presenting web technologies, applications and products.
If you need a strong introduction to e-biz with technical emphasis, buy the book, other wise, go to more business oriented reading or concrete (how to) technical book)

massive, intelligent guide to e-business
This is a massive, intelligent guide to e-business planning, technology choices, architecture and back-office support systems. There are extensive discussions of imaging, search engines, encryption and security and customer retention. The author is an e-business executive for Hewlett-Packard Co. in Germany; the book is a stunning review of the world of e-business -- from simple business strategies to disaster recoveries -- and even goes over the problems of old Pentium chips that were unable to do certain operations in long division. This work is superb and, though of reference-book length, it's well-written enough to be a page turner.

Very Good Book
This book is good.I wanted a book to help me prepare for CompTIA's e-Biz+ examination, and I think my search is over. This book explains things so well and it gives you a complete picture. So far, I find it fun to read. It has to be the book.
The money will have been well spent.
