This guide well-written, concise and thorough in its treatment. RMI programming can be simple if one doesn't venture out too far. But when you need to know the subtleties of object serialization or mobile code deployment, the specifications aren't complete and accurate, and most tutorials don't cover an area unless the spec does.
This guide sets out to "re-document" RMI and raise awareness of important (and often sublte) points, in cases correcting Sun's formal papers. It's invaluable as a refresher or reference. If it contained example code to verify its assertions, it would be hands-down the only RMI book to bother purchasing.
