Perfect example of a horrible technical book. I actually read the first few chapters multiple times thinking I was dense or missing something. Soon I realized the author never actually tells you anything. Sentences such as, "The term communication is self-explanatory." litter this book. The final chapters spewing nonsense and references to other sources for real meaning, had me thinking I'm asking for my money back from Packt. What a pile of garbage. Editor should be fired too.

Side note, I don't normally write bad reviews. I just think potential readers should be warned. If you don't believe me, read page 301, How a microservice works.
