CREATESPACE Oauth 2.0: Getting Started in Web-API Security Paperback – Illustrated, 31 January 2015

Totally waste of time..full theory based..

The book is small, but it could be smaller.It is written in a very large font, which makes its reading annoying.

No problems.

I bought this book from Amazon directly and never saw it "live" in a bookstore. My warning - it is a very small book. It's 70 pages long, but the font is huge and most of the pages are half empty. They really tried to make it look bigger at least at the first glance - didn't help, though.The content is OK, but you can read a Wikipedia article on OAuth instead of this book. It should have been a chapter in a book on security; by itself it looked like a joke when I got it in the mail.I am giving it 3 stars, not less, because, once again, the content is OK and it does give you OAuth overview. No code examples, just diagrams and HTTP requests, but that was enough for me. However, I still feel a bit stupid for actually paying money on something I could read up on the Internet for free.

The author makes no attempt to breathe any life into the subject matter. There are free articles on the internet which provide better value. It felt like I got burned on this purchase.
