Summary: Very good book in designing Web application framework
Comment: It is always harder in designing an application than implementing it. Java Server & servlets concentrated on design issue while providing a basic introduction to Servlet programming. The first part of book explained some basic about HTTP, HTTP server and servlets and then layout a WebApp framework in its second part, the last part of book put the framework to real use.

This book is very helpful in learning good design technique like Interface-centric programming. It used UML to aid design process and demonstrating a good OO design principle.

This book is valuable in its solving practical problems, it is not a book for learning basic servlet programming, instead, it is a book for anyone wants to do complex servlet programming.

That is a good Web application framework, the area for improvement is in its configuration file, IMHO, it is better to use XML instead of its own format/syntax.

Overall, it is a useful book for experienced Java programmer.

Summary: Be aware that this is not a book for Beginners ...
Comment: In the past 10 years I have been reading many dozen of technical computer-related books. I bought this book to learn about Servlets and despite the very-good customer reviews on the amazon.com, the book showed to me to be of not use. It is not as easy to follow - easy to implement code as it could be.

The book is NOT direct to beginners in Servlets and if your interest when buying such a book is to learn the basics of Servlet, you better off buying some other book on this topic.

Summary: A wealth of technical knowledge
Comment: For those who enjoy pouring through page after page of text that is more code than not, this is an excellent book for you. The technical knowledge of the book on Java server technology is perhaps one of the most comprehensive that I have seen in a single volume. However, it is often tedious or frustrating to try and extract that knowledge and assimilate it. There is little in the way of plain language explanations, especially in the chapter where the servlet api is exhaustively detailed. If you've read other books on the subject and are looking to expand your knowledge in the area, this is a book to own. If you are just getting into the arena of Java server programming, you may want to consider looking elsehwere.
