Summary: Mileage My Vary
Comment: This book was useful for getting an idea of how to get your JSPs and Servlets (using Tomcat) to talk to MySql. If you already know how to use JSP and Servlets, and are specifically trying to get some ideas on this configuration, it's probably worth it's one-time useage. (Better yet, see if you know anybody with the book, i'm sure they'll be willing to part with it)
Some of the examples were useful. But, I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone trying to learn about Java or JSP.
As someone already wrote, the link to the Java drivers for MySQL was probably the most valuable thing in this book.

Summary: Personal opinion
Comment: I found this book very helpful. I knew nothing about JSP, servlets and mysql. My previous experience came from a standard university course in Java. The book took me through setting up tomcat, mysql,etc. It started me off using the technologies. The book is built around a core example. I didn't reproduce and test the code supplied but dipped in to take what I needed. Downloading the code from the website was confusing. Overall this book has been very helpful. I found the content concise and to the point. Thanks to the author.

Summary: A painful read..
Comment: The TOC sounded great, so I bought the book. I hate to reiterate what other reviewers have already said, but it's true: there are so many errors it's rediculous. It was painful to figure out why I wasn't understanding some of the material (for example, the SAME SQL statement produces two DIFFERENT result sets on page 208/209)when in fact it was just a very poorly edited book. The book's topics are perfect - now someone needs to go through it with a pitchfork to weed out all the errors. Not to mention that the example code you can download has been refactored (to put it nicely). It's an expensive lesson in wasted money and time and frustration, but from now on, I'll always check the reviews here before ordering any book.
