Average Rating: 
Rating: - Entirely too technical
This book is exactly what I *didn't* need. I have a project due in 2 weeks, I don't know JSP and need to create something Yesterday. This book seems to want to tell me everything I don't want to know upfront and saves anything useful for chapters 16+. Reading the first 10 chapters, I don't know if I can make it through the next 6 in order to get to something helpful. Don't buy this book.
Rating: - Practically Useless
This book is subtitled, "A practical guide for designing and building dynamic web services". Yeah, right. Although the book is aimed at beginning to intermediate JSP developers, the authors fail miserably to communicate to their target audience. Basically, you'll find yourself re-reading section after section, wondering what the authors are trying to say, and why the book is so chock full of Java code listings, with only a smattering of JSP. Other books handle the learning curve of JSP much more ... Read More
Rating: - Best JSP book
This has been a very good buy for me. It explains all the JSP concepts well and also has very good information on javabeans. If you're a beginner with little or no knowledge in JSP, then this is a great place to start with.
Rating: - Amazing JSP introduction book
This book can also be used as reference.
Great care is also shown in providing lot of code examples that are on the point in each chapter.
My favourite chapters are "Filters and listeners", "design choices in case of an enterprise system"(whole chapter is dedicated for this) and "how to build custom tags".
Authors approach not only enriches a programmer's mind with JSP details but also in a way that is longlasting.
Rating: - Great book but not for NEW JSP programmers
Several months ago I was tasked with building several web applications using Java Server pages and had practically NO time to learn and even less help from peers.
I purchased this book and Core Servlets and Java Server pages and for the first 7 months trying to use this book just resulted in pissing me off.
HOWEVER, now that I've become relatively fluent in Servlet/JSP applications I find that this book DOES have some very useful information and I use it more than I use Core. Read More
