With its enormous power and flexibility, WCF has a very complex and multilayered architecture. After reading some nice overviews on WCF and even writing some simple code with out-of-box facilities provided by WCF, one may get a misleading impression of it being simple and straightforward. Once to delve into real world programming, you would be exposed to huge number of issues and complexities that in most cases may not be overcome without thorough understanding of the subject.Juval Lowy's book does an outstanding job ob systematically and thoroughly uncovering practically all aspects of WCF programming. Not only it presents a simple to understand architectural picture of WCF in general and various architectural and functional subsystems, but also abandons with practical and thorough explanations of the details of virtually all aspects of WCF.This book is not a beginner book. For starting with WCF I would recommend Michele Bustamante's book "Learning WCF". Lowy's book is a thorough reference on WCF that soon becomes your primary source of information.I would like also to note that it does not seem to be the intent of the book to reflect on all internal plumbing of WCF, which realistically needs lot of experimentation. You may find Justin Smith's book as a good supplement to Lowy's book on custom channels and behaviors. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very Good WCF Book *by J***N on Reviewed in the United States on October 16, 2007* I had only written a couple of WCF services before purchasing this book, and had survived by relying on samples found online. After purchasing this book, I no longer find myself looking for samples online. This book starts with the basics of WPF and makes them easy to understand. Then it proceeds into advanced topics such as message security, which had me puzzled until I read the chapter in this book.One of the things I really appreciate as a C# developer is the fact that almost every example in the book shows how to accomplish the given task in the .config file using the XML configuration elements, and also in pure C# code. Many examples I have seen in the MSDN or other documentation only deal with how to set up a client or server using the .config file which is not always practical. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ WCF-riffic *by R***H on Reviewed in the United States on June 19, 2007* yah.. pretty much what the others are saying. First book i purchased on WCF was "Pro WCF: Practical Microsoft SOA Implementation" and it wasn't all that interesting, rather a list of facts about wcf with some background leading up to it. this book is a typical oreilly read. concise, yet informative with clear examples in the text. Also, be sure to download the .net 3.0 SDK with samples library for WCF, AND the IDesign website for lots and lots of great examples. between those 2 you should have enough code to look at, and this book will fill in the blanks of what it all means. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.de/products/88108024-programming-wcf-services](https://www.desertcart.de/products/88108024-programming-wcf-services) --- *Product available on Desertcart Germany* *Store origin: DE* *Last updated: 2026-04-28*
