This is a very good book. I’ve been a software developer for more than 2 decades, working with a variety of platforms, languages, operating systems, etc., more on back-end processing and desktop applications, but also internet technologies. I recently completed a graduate certificate in GIS and have been looking for references that explore programming from an ESRI/web context. This book provides a great explanation of the fundamentals in a step-wise manner. The detailed style and accompanying explanations are not unlike what one finds in books like “Mastering ArcGIS” and “Getting To Know ArcGIS”, an approach that some people dislike because of the fine granularity, but one I personally find great. I often write highly-detailed instructions for myself when learning a new product or procedure, full of steps, screen captures and menu selections that I can refer to again when I have to repeat the task later on, so Nasser’s book with its quite similar approach suits me to a tee.With ESRI’s introduction of Web App Templates, etc. that often mask what’s going on, I’m still trying to formulate a better picture of what’s happening under the covers, directory structures, how things are organized, how to use the REST interface to automate the upload and updates of components through backend processing rather than manually through online utilities like those at www.arcgis.com, WMS vs. WFS, and so on. This book is helping to clarify one aspect of the picture, providing useful techniques that may be commonly applied to many projects. There’s a broad landscape to explore, one that could definitely benefit from more publications from Mr. Nasser.

This was a very good book, short and concise for the subject matter. This book leads the reader through a "Job Request" from start to finish utilizing the ArcGIS JavaScript API; this is a unique approach and I enjoyed it greatly. The code is written in a linear process while dealing with what the customer wants as an end product. Beginning with the basic database connections and a map service, the book leads you logically step by step to the final web page product. This is not a visually appealing web page designers guide, there are other references for coding those, but a wonderful, easily readable, book for integrating ArcGIS into a web platform.

Worth its value in code samples alone!I have bought every book published by Nasser and this is the latest one. He has a gentle style of tutoring. He doesn't go deep in details and I think his books can be termed from Beginner-to-Intermediate level. And that is fine for my needs.This particular book builds upon Nasser's ArcGIS GeoDatabase book: The Belize 'Bestaraunt' database created in that book is put into use in a web application based on ArcGIS JavaScript APIs.The book walks you through installing ArcGIS Desktop to explaining the Bestaurant data model to Publishing the data to an enterprise SQL Server database. Once those are done then the actual web application tutoring begins. The end result is a functional enterprise geodatabase driven, real time data web application.Yes, you can find all this info online but I doubt you will find any 'free' sources which explain a full featured web application and its underlying (backend) software in as coherent and easy way as Nasser's book does.I think the book is well worth the code samples alone. 5 Star!

Excellent book for those just starting out with making ArcGIS web applications. It does a good job with setting up a simple enterprise system to host a online map application. This includes setting up a server, uploading map services, then displaying those services using the javascript API.However, the topics are really basic. I wish that it some more topics that went deeper into some more advanced topics in the API such as geoprocessing services, renders/symbols (queries needed to create symbology), and some more instances with using geometry. There can easily be more than 110 pages of material, but it is an informative short book.
