Review

This wonderful book, Spring Recipes, covers in a excellent way Spring 2.5 from basic to advanced and in many cases some compatible configurations for 1.x, scalable. It is a way to learn each chapter throught the book, 19 well-organized chapters that cover the most important topics in the J2EE world with Spring, and of course, Spring core itself

 

This book is for beginners and medium Spring developer programmers. Advanced programmers would find this book useful as a reference. In other words if you buy this book you are not wasting your money. This book has an excellent structured approach to learn for any reader. Concrete theory and good realistic examples.

 

Dear Members

In These days any aspirant to Java Developer must learn in some point to work with J2EE. The decision can be easy but the huge problem appears in how to learn this from the scratch. Years ago the only option to work with J2EE was EJB (a wonderful pain), now, Spring, our savior.

The obvious question would be, which book I must buy to learn Spring?. Years ago the leader books I have already read has many approaches and with Spring 2.x out there, many of these books are not very useful now, of course about the new features offered by Spring (Annotations, AspectJ Support etc )

If you are a beginner and you want to learn from the scratch Spring in an excellent book structured  with the most important features of Spring 2.x, don’t think twice and buy it this one Something that I like of this book is that it offers you not only one way to do a work/configuration; instead you can find, for example, one solution using xml, and other annotations, and it is very useful for future reference.


Best regards and enjoy this book eagerly.
