Enterprise Architecture: Enabling Business Success: Industry tested and actionable techniques for anyone wanting to guide IT execution and empower ... a successful Enterprise Architecture Program.
Traditional Enterprise Architecture (EA) programs can often seem static and based on documents that are time stamped. While the business moves and transforms daily to support customer needs, EA materials are dated and fixed. But what if EA could tap into wells of IT information and visibly link the company’s capabilities, business processes, data objects and applications; creating a real-time picture of the enterprise? This book is your guide for doing and taking action in creating a dynamic living Enterprise Architecture based on reference frameworks, impactful deliverables and tuned data-driven models; allowing IT to deliver consistent positive results and the business competitive advantage.

The chapters feel (and are) way too short. Every time you think "and now the chapter takes off", the end has already been reached. As a result, the chapters feel empty and hollow.
Techniques and methods are described so briefly that they are of no use at all. The amount of information is even less than extremely superficial.
The book has a clear focus on Solution Architecture. The most used perspective is that of IT. This is not a bad thing in itself, but it is when it is presented as if it were Enterprise Architecture.
Mentioning TOGAF and the word strategy a few times does not make it about Enterprise Architecture. The book is overwhelmingly written from a technical and operational perspective, most likely from the Solution Architecture perspective the author is familiar with.
The author claims to have a Master Architect certification in Enterprise Architecture, but this does not appear to be true (the certification is in Solution Architecture, which used to be similar to IT Architecture). The lack of knowledge about Enterprise Architecture is painfully reflected in the book.
It is books like these that keep the field of Enterprise Architecture confined to the IT context.
