Summary: Great reference book
Comment: This book was loaded with examples. The examples can be downloaded off of the internet, which is great because I've had CDs in books arrive broken before.

The step-by-step RMI instructions helped me a lot with my assignments, and I learned a lot of stuff from this book.

I would not recommend this book to a programming beginner, though. It assumes that you know at least some basics of a high level language.

Summary: Good book, best I have seen, here's my criticism
Comment: OK, so I am hard to please... The book was very good- delivered on its promise to teach Java Beans. I have the following observations:

1) Never came out and said exactly what a Java Bean is- a component that can be manipulated in a visual builder. The Beans spec addresses the mechanism by which a Bean exposes its features to the Builder. The book covers additional material, which *should* be covered, but never makes clear what makes a Bean a Bean.

2) Stuffed (padded?) with examples.

3) Section on Introspection was not as clear as it could have been. I downloaded the Beans spec from the Sun site, and that helped fill in the gaps.

Overall, I would definitely recommend this book.

Summary: good book
Comment: This is a very good book well worth the money. I would have given it 5 star rating, except for one thing. The author should have explained more clearly about the method of mapping used in chapter 3 since it is different from the previous chapters. It took me very long time to figure it out. My conclusion is go buy it, but be aware of what I just said.
