Exchanging Objects and Messages with SOAP

Webservices != SOAP

SOAP is a web services mechanism
Other mechanisms exist
But we won't talk about them
SOAP is part of a web services 'stack'
It's easy to get caught-up with the confusion of using 'SOAP' and 'Web Services' interchangeably but 'Web Services' is a fairly generic term referring to exposure of an application over internet protocols. SOAP is a specific set of rules for how XML data payloads are formatted and exchanged.
