Summary: What a ColdFusion developer need to learn
Comment: Since the release of ColdFusion MX, learning a little bit of Java makes more sense than ever for a ColdFusion developer. Unfortunately, the vast majority of Java manuals out there are targeted to people with OOP experience, often C/C++ developers. They also cover a lot of things that have no value for a web developer. Eben Hewitt managed to cover this special niche pretty well, with a well-structured book that delivers exactly what a ColdFusion developer need to learn in order to become acquainted with Java.

Summary: Serves its intended purpose well
Comment: Whether you have an OO background or not, this book makes learning the basics of Java easy and gets you up to speed in JSP's and servlets very fast. A friend of mine who is an experienced Java developer looked through it and was impressed...it really hits the points that need to be covered in a very clear and concise way. If you need more depth or practice with specific Java topics, there are other suitable books to use as helpful reference. Although it is written for ColdFusion developers, anyone with basic web programming experience will find this book useful as an introduction to JSP's and servlets. Very highly recommended.
