Summary: Enterprise Java Programming with IBM WebSphere
Comment: This book has very good instructions and examples on how to use Visual Age for Java and develop Servlets, JSP, EJB, etc. The problem is the organization of the book and its relationship to what's on the CDs and when to look at 'what' is terrible.
The initial chapters' titles (1 - 4) do not describe what is actually included in the chapter.
If you are a designer, developer or application programmer and just want to know what you need to know to get the job done, you will be reading a lot of unnecessary information that will do more to scare you off and overload an already overly difficult set of development tools.
Skip to chapter 5, (see page 226 to learn how to install the case study, and do it [also load Visual Age]). Then proceed from there. Starting with Chapter 5, read all of each chapter THEN go back and do the examples from the case study.
This can be a valuable book if you need to learn how to develop systems using J2EE, you just need to work at it (i.e., how to read this book)!

Summary: Good for All J2EE Developers
Comment: I had the good fortune to be given a pre-release version of this book. I have found it a great guide for coming up to speed on WebSphere 3.5 and VisualAge for Java 3.5 and for understanding the design and architecture issues of J2EE. As a consultant, I will highly recommend this book to any of my clients using WebSphere. I will also encourage clients using J2EE with other tools to read the technology and design chapters of this book.
The book's core value goes far beyond the WebSphere and VisualAge specific content to provide application architecture and design guidance for J2EE applications. The book winds it's way through the complexity of J2EE to highlight the key issues and choices in designing a JSP, Servlet, and EJB application. It provides clear examples of various complexities that can provide a starting point for developing your applications. Of particular value are discussions on when to use EJBs, scaling considerations in handling client session, and design patterns for multi-tiered applications.
The book provides clear, concise introductions to the key technologies you need to build J2EE applications: HTTP, Servlets, JSP, client session management, JDBC, and EJB. It teaches the reader how to use the key aspects of VisualAge and WebSphere to build applications. The authors made excellent choices on which aspects of VisualAge and WebSphere to focus on.
No one developing WebSphere applications should be without this book!

Summary: Money Lost!
Comment: This book is based on websphere 3.5, you may think it is okay, but things have changed too much from version 3.5 to version 5.0 , it is useless under version 4 too!. In version 3.5 the administration was done using a windows GUI but in version 4.0 web administration was introduced so all menues are gone, the examples are useless!. OK, the desing patterns presented are good but maybe not worth the money.
