Customer Reviews

Excellent J2EE/Web services Programming Primer and Reference

This book is by far the best J2EE/Web services book I have had the pleasure of reading. Keogh covers both J2EE and Web services in perfect detail, while at the same time managing to keep the tone of the book light without any sacrifice to the depth of coverage. As an web services programmer myself, I was looking for a book that would help me and my project team get up to speed quickly with J2EE Web services programming. Among all the books I reviewed, I liked this one the best!

Excellent J2EE Web Services Book

The author has a very lucid, to-the-point style of writing that is refreshing in these days. It's also written extremely well. It's both modern and thorough, something the other books can't claim. This book is tight and you definitely get your money's worth every time you sit down with it. I think that this was one of the best books that I have ever read on J2EE and web services.

An easy way to learn J2EE and Web Services programming

I'm very impressed by the quality of this book. The book emphasizes the delicate balance, between engineering quality and brute performance, which a programmer must strive for. It gives lots of excellent advices along heavily commented code parts and detailed explanations.

Very useful reference

The best book ever written. This book covers in detail both Web services (i.e. XML, SOAP) and J2EE (i.e. servlets, EJB, JSP, JDBC). The author has managed to cover almost everything required to build a web services application using J2EE. The author is very clear about what he is writing and has a very systematic approach of taking you through the book. This book is good, believe me. It starts at where it should and cover all aspects of J2EE and web services. It's a good buy.

Excellent if you need to catch up J2EE and Web Services

This book is not for the complete Java novice. You need a good grounding in Java before undertaking J2EE to write Web Services applications. This is by far the best book I have seen on J2EE and Web Services. The book is well written; the examples are explained line by line. This book taught me everything I needed to about how to write a J2EE Web Services based application. It also shown me how to write a J2EE distributive application that is not web services based.
