Summary: A good start but lacks cohesion
Comment: This book provides a good introduction to AspectJ, but I found it less-than-perfect in the way it is organized. The authors begin by going through some examples, showing the different type of things you might do with AspectJ. I kept looking for a well-defined grammar or some good description of the whole AspectJ syntax. It wasn't there.

Some people will enjoy the gradual introduction of new concepts and different usage, but I found it somewhat frustrating without a good roadmap.

I could probably live with the style except for the fact that the code examples were never double-checked. There are several mistakes in them, ranging from the wrong names being used (p. 90 DVDGetLoc should be allStats) to logic errors (p. 71, the last statement should be outside of the braces). I expect better quality control.

I would like to see a new edition of the book written with more cohesion in the presentation and the errors in the code corrected. Until then, I'll probably look at some of the other books on AspectJ.

Rating: 5
Summary: Great "How to" book for AspectJ novices and experts alike
Comment: This book really explains how to do some very powerful things using Aspect Oriented Programming and AspectJ in particular. The authors discuss the reasoning and design decisions involved in the semantics of the language. They also provide lots of complete, practical examples that help you see the benefits of AOP. The authors assume no prior knowledge of AspectJ on your part. Their writing style is light and straightforward, but not boring or dry. People who've already had some experience with AspectJ might want to skip the first two chapters, but even advanced users can find valuable information in the later chapters. Overall, it is an excellent read and a great introduction to "the next big paradigm shift" in Computer Science.
