But you should be carefully, in which book you are buying. Building web sxervices with Java is based on apache axis pre-beta-version of axis. So it will not help (it did not help me alot) developing with axis especially. To learn about xml, web services and SOAP it is good, but not more. Refer to the books mentioned at axis-page (Reading guide): http://xml.apache.org/axis/index.html
To learn about XML, RPC, XML-RPC, SOAP and web services as well as SAX, DOM, JDOM and JAXP the O'Reilly book java & XML helped me a lot.

It's got a good primer chapter on XML and focuses on WS development on Apache Axis.
