Trade Review'The book is written in easy, understandable English, with many valuable pictures visualizing the content of the book. There are a lot of good source code examples complementing the content of the book. Each chapter ends with references and supplemental reading related to the content of the chapter. I would recommend the book for students interested in wireless services and networks, mobile network managers, and as a good introduction to the subject for engineers interested in designing Web services in wireless networks.'
