Not only they are valuable, all the examples I tried just worked which in itself saved me from frustrations!I must say that with this book, I clearly discovered many great capabilities of BizTalk and I am confident that I can accomplish anything that involves BizTalk using BizTalk Unleashed!By the way, the review just reflects my satisfaction of the book.
