《RESTful.NET应用(影印版)》是第一本为欲使用最新的微软工具建立RESTful web服务的Windows开发人员而准备的书。《RESTful.NET应用(影印版)》作者Jon Flanders是WCF（WindowsCommunication Foundation）专家。这本简单实用的教程示范了如何使用WCF和.NET 3.5 Framework的其他组成部分，来建立、部署并使用多种应用场景中基于REST的wleb服务。RESTful体系结构提供了比SOAP、SOA或繁琐的WS-*堆栈更为简单的方式以建立web服务。WCF已经被证实为无须依托WS－*标准即可建立分布式处理系统的灵活技术。《RESTful.NET》为消耗机器和人力建立web服务提供了一个WCF REST编程模型的完全指导。

“REST是简易的，WCF却不是这样。要切实理解并利用这部分的WCF，需要一个有丰富知识和实战经验的指导者。我想不出比Jon Flanders更适合担任这个角色的人……Jon在解释复杂的概念方面功夫一流。在创建和使用WCF的这些服务上，这本书是我见过的最好的介绍。”
