Summary: Servlet API Version Issues
Review: The book is good if you want to learn about servlets, but if you already know the basics, I'm afraid there is not much new here and the apparent whitewashing of the servlet api mismatch may falsely lead those wishing to bolster their already existing skills.

Summary: No book could be better on this subject!
Review: The reviews of this book just don't go far enough in telling you how great it is. You don't even need to know Java to understand how servlets work and how they fit in web development. The book takes you through the basics of the Internet to how and why you would write and use a servlet. The only thing missing is to have the author come out and write your application.

Summary: Excellent introduction to servlets
Review: This book does an excellent job of clearly and concisely showing how to create production-quality servlets. It provides useful foundation material about protocols and the Web, which you can skim if you already know this stuff. The servlet topics themselves are presented in a step-by-step manner that never leaves you "hanging". Anyone with basic Java programming skills should find this book suitable. Programmers with some familiarity with servlets should also find some useful suggestions for more effective techniques. I highly recommend it.

Summary: EXCELLENT! EXCELLENT! EXCELLENT BOOK!!!!!
Review: This book does an excellent job of explainning what servlets are even for java beginer who is new to servlets. It includes several practical working examples and show the relationship of each class and method to specific problems. I am a Cobol and Visual Basic programmer who is not familiar with the internet subjects. The first seven chapters of this book provides an excellent background about the Web development concepts which took me straight to the floor. When I have question and e-mail Mr. Callaway, He answerred it very promptly and explained it in detail. This book's worth every single penny that I spent and every second that I read. I hope it will does the same thing to you. BUY IT!

Summary: Clear explanations and real-world code examples
Review: This book gives you everything you need to get started writing server-side Web applications in Java. It takes you through essential background information, such as the HTTP protocol and TCP/IP, explains how to install and configure a web server to run Java servlets, and builds usable applets using clear explanations and real-world code examples.

Summary: a good introduction to servlets but nothing more
Review: This book is a good introduction to servlets and explains the basic concepts well. On the down-side, some of the later chapters are nothing but several pages of code printouts which do not help much. It barely covers the concept of servlet chaining and excuses itself by claiming that is server specific; although true, the use of the servlet developer kit runner as an example would have been appropriate. The chapter on session management is weakened by not having a working example of the bound/unbound events. If you are in the intermediate to advanced stage in servlet programming this book is not for you.
