Struts 2 in Action

I have always been looking forward to learn more about struts2. I have read some tutorials on the Internet, which were really useful, but the problem with the problem with them was that they didn’t really go into the details. I have started reading the book “Struts 2 in Action”. It shows you the big picture and the details of struts2 actions, interceptors, OGNL etc. Overall I really liked this book. I should mention that the only downside I realized when I was reading this book was the fact that it doesn’t contain enough sample code. This website should give you more information about this book, it also contains some samples from different chapters.

Read MoreJBoss Seam
I have just started reading an interesting book on JBoss Seam called ‘JBoss Seam simplicity and power Beyond JavaEE ‘. I love it!
I have to say that its a little bit disappointing that it doesn’t have many examples, since I really like books with lots of coding examples.
Over all its the best book I have seen so far on JBoss Seam! It’s really easy to understand and it does explain everything clearly. JBoss Seam still has some issues regarding performance and some other issues such as its components compatibility in FireFox and I.E but it has a bright future in web development… If you are looking for a starting point to learn JBoss Seam I believe this is a good book to start with, of course if you are looking for the cheaper way to start you could always find great tutorials on the web

Ubuntu Linux Bible is a great book to learn Linux, its useful for both experts and beginners.

I haven’t read the book yet I just skipped through it and it looks really useful. To download it click here.
Read MoreCore Servlets and JSP

Lately I have been having more free time I started looking for a book to read on Servlets and JSP pages. I Found a book called Core Servlets and Java Server Pages by Marty Hall, I briefly skimmed through the first few chapters and I really liked it. It didn’t take me long to finish the book, since it has been written in an easy to understand style, plus it has lots of examples, which makes everything much easier. I have looked into other books on the same topic but by far this book seems to be the best one I have seen. If you are planning to start learning servlets/JSPs or even looking into the subject in more details than this book should be a good starting point.
