Why is this book good?
Covers everything about Electronic Data Interchange. It is well organized, showing incoming EDI data and out going EDI data. Each EDI Software step is explained using the Pyramid approach: Communications, Translation, Interface, and Application. The book looks small but the information inside is powerful. The Author is very knowledgeable in this subject.

Doesn't deliver
I had high expectations for this book, but I don't really think I got what I paid for. I realize that the book is not a programmers reference book (and indeed I am not a programmer) but I really expected it to explain in more detail what the EDI standard(s) are all about. Instead of doing that, it runs through several sections of implimentation scenarios and legal issues ... all covered on an very basic and generic level, such as "remember to train the operators", "the server most be have enough processing power" and "make sure that the managers understand the benefits of the system". While all of this advice makes sense, it applies to virtually any system aquisation and implimentation. The word "XML" is not mentioned once in the entire book - so draw your own conclusions.
