An Excellent Introduction
This is a delightfully lucid introduction to Enterprise Java Beans. Unfortunately, it was published in 1999 and is a lucid introduction to EJB version 1.1, not the more current 2.0. Let's hope Mr. Valesky has a new edition in the works! Also, it is a relatively brief introduction, not a comprehensive how-to manual, so many of the necessary but mind-numbing details are left out. Nevertheless, the book would be useful as a conceptual introduction, perhaps to be followed by something meatier.

Solid Examples
With little experience on EJB prior to accessing this book, I found the chapter 3 is an excellent one. I spend 2 hours reading through chapter 3 and I feel I understand EJB a lot better than I used to. I definitely recommend this book to EJB beginners.

Excellent Book for Programmers
With no WebLogic background I was able to get Tom's examples working and get a great understanding of how EJB actually works in practice.

It's nice to work with a book in which the examples actually compile and run without errors! While others are critical of the details of chapter two, I say bravo! Tom explains exactly what is happening under the covers which is most helpful to real programmers.

I love this book. It is an authoritative book on EJB. A great way to get hands on experience. Keep up the good work Tom. We appreciate it!
