Ok, but no great.
I am not sure what else is out there? The book ok, but not really remarkable in any way.

A Great Book for NIO
NIO is a great IO class, I think it's the best package presented by Sun since Swing, it provides you with more than what you need from NIO class in just 250 pages.

Good introduction to NIO (and regular exprs??), lacks depth
The book is useful to get started on nio, but you may overgrow it after a week:
it does not delve deeply into the matter. Particularly missing are:
- Mapped byte buffer uses
- Interactions between java & else using mapped files
- OS/platform idiosyncrasies (limits etc)
- Performance analysis

Finally, be aware that half of the book is devoted to regular expressions. The conflagration of nio and regexps is rather strange. I would rather have a shorter book with just a little more depth.
