Customer Reviews for: Head First Servlets and JSP: Passing the Sun Certified Web Component Developer Exam (Brain-Friendly Guides)

Rating 4 out of 5 - Not only for SCWCD
Looking for some good material to revise/learn JSP technology?
Having an impression that each book is similar to the previous one?
Want to pass SCWCD exam?
When you answered `yes' at least twice, I think that you shall definitely read Head First SCWCD by Bryan Basham, Bert Bates and Kathie Sierra.
The most important difference between this book and all the rest is the way how authors describe technical issues. Don't consider them easy - they are really tricky sometimes.
It is a very funny book although the topic is not so easy. It's marvelous that authors describe the problems not too detailed. After the introduction they redirect to specification. In comparison to other books I must say that reading something about existence of specification is rare in practice. Here the redirection is very brief - includes chapter numbers and document name.
Cons? I know that JSF is not on the list of SCWCD but I missed it. EL & JSTL is quite hard to understand relying on this book only.
Anyway, this is a very good position to start working on JSP.
I think that the purpose of writing this book is that the reader will be trying to pass SCWD exam. Even you don't want to pass a certification, I do strongly recommend it to you.
It's also worth emphasizing that [...] is a great addition to this book. People discuss many things also that ones included in this book. When there is a lot of confusion, you can rely on Bryan or Bert's answers and clarification.

Rating 5 out of 5 - best textbook i've ever read
This book is just fun. Besides all the kung-fu, I actually learned something about JSPs. This is the kind of textbook I'd write, if I ever do...

I really appreciated the hands-on sections and all the detailed notes. It is the first textbook I could read from cover to cover (almost there) and that doesn't put me into sleep, but put ideas into my head.

I strongly recommend it to anyone who wants to have a good and fun start in Servlets and JSPs.

Rating 4 out of 5 - A must to have!
Very clear! It seems easy to program servlets with this book. Graphics are simply perfect!!

Rating 4 out of 5 - Good book for understanding the Java Web tier
This is one of the best books available out there.
I was under the impression that this version of the book covers java 1.5 enhancements, but it doesn't.
