There is currently no fail-back feature in ActiveMQ. This is a very
complex solution which is why it hasn't been created.

The book is part of the Manning Early Release Program (MEAP) and is
not yet complete. As we write the book, we continue to push updates to
those who have purchased the book. The chapter on clustering was not
yet complete enough to include in the last MEAP update.

No idea, I haven't worked there in over a year.

The master/slave features in ActiveMQ are for failover functionality.
The network of broker features are for clustering/federation:

http://activemq.apache.org/networks-of-brokers.html

A network of brokers allows for broker-to-broker messaging based on
demand from consumers subscribed to destinations. This is sometimes
known as distributed queues.
