"I love the layout, style, organization, thoroughness,
ease of understanding, and overall excellence of the
Murach books. They explain everything very clearly,
step by step, in a mentor/instructor conversational
style, and in a problem-solving context.
"The problem-solving
context is especially valuable, as it really drills
the topic into one's brain. It's one thing to read about
an API and see how it works; it's another thing to see
it being used to solve a common business process or
problem....
"In short, I cannot
recommend Murach's Java Servlets and JSP (2nd Edition)
enough. This book is a pleasure to read, and I've learned
a ton, and solidified my knowledge and skills regarding
Java web development.
"Get it. You'll like
it. It's well worth the $52.50 price tag."
Jeff Salter, TheServerSide.com
"This book is very practical, and it will make
Servlets and JSP fun to learn. It is so enjoyable that
you'll finish reading it in no time. I wish I had such
a book when I started developing web applications. Highly
recommended."
Christophe Verre, JavaRanch.com
"I've read a lot of computer technology books,
and rarely have I felt so solidly prepared as this one
to transfer what I've learned into real projects."

"A very strong point your book has is putting
crystal-clear comments on the left page, with short
but realistic examples and a summary on the right. The
idea is simple, but very efficient: it allowed me to
progress at light speed and still proves to be very
convenient when I need to refresh my memory within seconds.
It makes me a more productive programmer. Very good
index, too!"
Xavier Mercier, Software Designer, Galway,
Ireland
"I have to admit I was a bit intimidated by JSP
and servlets. But Murach's treatment of the topic is
excellent. It goes step-by-step, starting with simple
examples, but the pace doesn't feel overly slow. You
always feel like you're making good progress.... Overall
a great book."

"I have been a developer for over 10 years in
many different languages and usually for each language
or topic I buy lots of books, most of which, sad to
say, are fairly boring, overly complex, teach useless
stuff you will never use or are way too cluttered and
disorganized to get the points across. Usually I find
a couple of books that really stand out and become tattered
and ragged with use. This is such a book."

"Every so often you find a technical book that
is so superbly written you actually enjoy reading it,
because you know you're going to be able to understand
and learn more each time you pick it up. From the start
of this book, through to the end, I found myself feeling
so glad I found this book and so grateful to the authors,
because the care and skill with which it was written
makes it very easy to read and understand."

"There is a line written on this book, 'No other
book teaches you so much, so fast, so thoroughly,' and
I must tell you that this is 100% correct. Congrats
!! on coming up with this amazing work of yours....
Looking forward to more books on other languages as
well."
