I have read many other Web API book but this book is just amazing. Author has covered very detailed web api concepts and also added many real time examples. That makes this book more interesting.I have hard copy of this book and in my free time I just revise this book multiple time and it’s makes my concept more clear.Amazing book and author has done great effort here to putting together all information about web api.I also recommend others to read this book once.

The content of this book is worth the price, which is not something I often find with technical books. However, the layout of the code blocks in the Kindle version are flattened. I recommend downloading the PDF version that is made available to those that own the Kindle version. The code blocks are much easier to read in the PDF. - It’s just a tad frustrating to have to refer to two versions.
