Well worth the reading
I found this book to be an excellent reference from the minute I opened it. I began by paging through the chapters but almost immediately found areas that helped with the project I was currently working on.
Unlike most books that spend the first several chapters covering basic topics that are covered by every other book, this one actually presented a more concise and in depth look at those topics. The chapter on IDL was well worth the reading.
This is difinately not a book for the beginner or for those looking to use languages other than C++. I did find some pieces questionable. The authors implementation of a resource sharing mechanism seems unnecessary. Why is it that authors know how to write better code than anyone else?

Informative and comprehensive
This book is ideal for beginning to develop applications and for the need for a better understanding of the different COM aspects. The variety of examples is however limited and builds upon previous shown examples. However the author limits the need of useless repeating. Read this book if you want to understand the different tools but for real development the book is not practical enough.

The Best COM book in the market
This is one of the best books written to provide an indepth view of Microsoft technologies and opens up new arenas for a developer. The author is very knowledgable about the COM+ and C++ programming and demonstrated a very logical approach to unraveling the topics which are very difficult to understand otherwise.
