Summary: The Gist of J2EE 1.4
Comment: The introduction to this book emphasises a "meat and potatoes" approach. The authors focus on describing the key points of J2EE 1.4, that most users can expect to need, most of the time. The reason this is necessary is because J2EE in this latest iteration encompasses a group of subjects, each of which can be, and has been, the sole subject of a book.
Specifically, we have Java Server Pages and Java Servlets. These are often used to make dynamic web pages, within a web server container like Tomcat, which gets an appendix of its own here, due to its importance.
As a practical matter, these JSPs/Servlets often hook up to databases. So J2EE involves using JDBC. Another 2 chapters here.
Business logic is often encapsulated using Enterprise Java Beans. These are now quite mature. Their widespread use in a J2EE context is reflected here in the 4 chapters devoted to them. These include a discussion of the recently introduced Message Driven Beans, used in JMS.
Finally, 2 chapters are given over to Web Services. Here the discussion is somewhat skimpy. Not thru any fault of the authors. Web Services are currently very inchoate. Much is being claimed for their future potential. But in terms of what is defined and available right now - well there isn't much. If you really are interested in Web Services, try a companion volume from the same publisher, "Google, Amazon and Beyond: Creating and Consuming Web Services" by Nakhimovsky and Myers.
The utility of this book is in letting you quickly come up to speed on J2EE. As a practical matter, once you have done so, you may want to get comprehensive books on the specific J2EE subjects that you will be dealing with. A virtue of this book is that it deliberately is NOT comprehensive. But it gives you the gist of each subject.
