If we looking at the book fairly , at the time it was published , the IT experts haven't yet fully informed about Cloud computing and it was good and suitable(nevertheless the book was like a long Story rather than a Science book)But I think now the situation is changed.
This book is written in 2010 and I read it in 2012, as u know the train of technology is going too fast and I think although the book has pointed good subjects but it needs to be rebooted and revised.
Unfortunately in contrary to the book's name, we wouldn't observe things about "implementing" much.
