Learn how to develop REST-style and SOAP-based web services and clients with this quick and thorough introduction. This hands-on book delivers a clear, pragmatic approach to web services by providing an architectural overview, complete working code examples, and short yet precise instructions for compiling, deploying, and executing them. You’ll learn how to write services from scratch and integrate existing services into your Java applications.
With greater emphasis on REST-style services, this second edition covers HttpServlet, Restlet, and JAX-RS APIs; jQuery clients against REST-style services; and JAX-WS for SOAP-based services. Code samples include an Apache Ant script that compiles, packages, and deploys web services.
- Learn differences and similarities between REST-style and SOAP-based services
- Program and deliver RESTful web services, using Java APIs and implementations
- Explore RESTful web service clients written in Java, JavaScript, and Perl
- Write SOAP-based web services with an emphasis on the application level
- Examine the handler and transport levels in SOAP-based messaging
- Learn wire-level security in HTTP(S), users/roles security, and WS-Security
- Use a Java Application Server (JAS) as an alternative to a standalone web server

Instead of concentrating on a way to build efficient WS with standard Java Technologies this book tries to touch every possible way to create a web service with standard and non-standard technologies.
I would recommend concentrating more on Java EE and ways to build highly efficient web services with the standard technologies instead of exploring Restlet.
By Florin Vasile
The book describes itself as "a code centric tour through the APIs and implementation technologies that support web services under Java."
Key words being "code centric" and "tour".
What you get:
##########
++ Lots of examples using key Java web service technologies.
....Service development examples using plain vanilla servlets, REST with JAX-RS/Restlets/JAX-WS, and SOAP with JAX-WS.
....Service deployment examples using a servlet container or an Endpoint publisher.
....Client development examples using plain Java (URLConnection), WADL generated classes, etc.
....Tooling such as xjc, wsimport, schemagen, wadl2java, etc.
However, here's what is missed:
######################
-- Not enough detail on supporting technologies such as JAXB, XML parsing, XML Schemas, etc.
-- Focuses heavily on Amazon's E-commerce API, which is too complex to make for readable examples in a short book. (This complexity is acknowledged in the section on async clients.)
-- The focus is on implementation, not design. So, no discussion of REST principles, good API design, etc.
Note that a significant complaint with the first edition was poorly written code examples. While I have not executed the code, all the snippets looked reasonable to me. However, the ZIP archives I downloaded from the O'Reilly site (points to github.com/mkalin/jwsur2) could not be opened using WinZip 12.
ConclusioN:
########
The emphasis of this book is on coding services and clients. As a result, it avoids high level concepts, best practices, and provides only summary level discussions of other adjacent APIs.
This single minded focus may not be for everyone. However, I found it rather refreshing as there are enough high brow, but useless, books out there.
Happy SOA!
