Summary: Servlets Lite
Review: Looked good, but the second that I had to do something that wasn't apparent from the JavaDocs, this book left me without a guide. Therefore, I count it as a waste of time for me, but I can see how the book might be interesting to others. I just bought O'Reilly's book on Servlet programming, and it answered my immediate question. Hopefully, it will age.

Summary: Poor book for Java Servlets
Review: Moss is good in JDBC, so nearly 1/3 of the book focus on JDBC instead of java servlets, if you are really want to learn servlets, don't buy this book. As I said above, the book focus on JDBC, not servlet, so the material covered on servlet is not enough, especially for beginner, they may not even know how to get a parameter from a form. Read oreally or wrox instead, don't buy this book if you really want to learn servlet. Only buy this when you like JDBC on java servlet.

Summary: Just not enough information.
Review: Nice pictures but if only they gave more in depth explanations to go with it. This book is for managers or people just interested in java servlets than actually writing code. It is of no use for programmers. You can't use it as a reference because there just isn't enough information to go by. Get Jason Hunter's book. Its excellent!

Review: OK for an overview, too much paper spent on JRun, and WebServer

Summary: Java Servlets by Karl Moss
Review: Published July 3rd, 1998, this is the first book to focus on the development of Internet-based applications using the Java Servlet API. An appendix in the back features an alphabetical description of each class in the API, along with an illustration of the hierarchy, a method summary and a detailed method description for each class. The CD-ROM includes the JRun servlet runner from Live Software, ServletExec servlet runner from New Atlanta, JBuilder IDE from Inprise (formerly Borland) and the source code for all the applications in the book.

Summary: Don't waste your money
Review: Sketchy coverage. I have gained very little from this book. There are much better books: Core Servlets,Hall; O'reilly Servlets, Hunter ...

Summary: This book was far too shallow.
Review: The author obviously knows what he is talking about. However, he is quite inept at explaining to his reader what he is doing. In fact, he rarely tries. He just has sample code, helps you set up the java webserver, then has you run the code. It is more about webserver configuration than it is about servlet programming

Summary: Who edited this thing?
Review: The book seems like a bomb someone dropped then ran. They leave no contact information for book updates, like they don't want you to find them. After reading through it and using some of the code samples, I found they were terribly written. I also found completely false information inside. They state, and I quote "The POST method on the other hand, causes the data to be encrypted and sent in a seperate transmission". - Which is completely false. If this is dead wrong, who knows what else in there is?? This guy gives servlets a bad name... where are the other servlet books?

Summary: A waste of money...
Review: There simply isnt enough meat in this book. If you are looking for a quick overview then this will probably help. But if you are after in depth info on Servlets, you had better look elsewhere...
