Summary: One of the worst tech books I have seen
Comment: I have purchased this book after reading the excelent Java 2: The Complete Reference, by Herbert Schildt.
This book has lots of chapters covering many subjects but none of them goes deep enough to let you really learn what that thing means.
There are chapters about HTML, XML and SQL that I really think that are not needed in that kind of book and the chapters about JSP and EJB are so small and poor in content that I had to go through the J2EE 1.4 tutorial provided by Sun to get the point on these techs.
The most part of the book is waste on tables listing methods of classes, but it's just that: The author gives a table with a list of methods and a small sentence stating what it does. No code sample, no usage... If I was searching for list of classes and methods, the Sun documentation available online is more than good.
I have not yet seen a really good J2EE book, even because I haven't read so many, but the Sun's tutorial looks very good.

Summary: Complete Reference? Sort of...
Comment: Based on the title of this book, you would think it would have some real content. After reading the first part of this book, I was deeply disappointed. I think this book is great for project managers who want to learn the development side of the J2EE technology. But for developers/engineers, it is a complete waste of time. Although the author does touch on every subject associated with J2EE he fails to connect all the dots. Explaining Java servlets and JSP, as one example, was a good start but there is nothing about how they work with each other. There arent very many examples either, but the ones that do exist, get right to the point and explain the subject matter appropriately. Too bad that isnt enough to make it more than a 2 star book. Glad I didnt pay full price for it (bought a used copy for $6 - barely makes it worth it).

Summary: Should be "0 star" book.
Comment: This is a worst book I have been read. It is full of Java APIs listing like "yellow pages". None of topic touch the depth.
I don't understand why the rating of this book is so high. (Maybe some friends of the author wrote them. :)
