A great Book November 15, 2008
I have just started reading this book and I am impressed by the Authors writing style, examples and explanations. I hardly get impressed by a book on the first day. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in learning Spring and taking advantage of its rich features.
Great book August 31, 2008
Great writing style. Clear explanations and great metaphors, sprinkled with enough humor to keep you reading what could otherwise be a stodgy subject. The first three chapters lay the groundwork very clearly. I'm not yet sure that there's enough concision to make this a reference book, but it is certainly a great tutorial. I had Spring bouncing into action in no time with this book as a guide.
 Vast subject, well covered August 8, 2008
Spring is vast even if the two basic principles, Inversion of Control (IoC) and Aspect Oriented Programming (AoP) are not. In around 700 pages Spring in Action does a good job of covering the fundamentals. I'm judging the book from a 2008 standpoint and have marked it down a star because the chapter on Spring Security is dated and you would do better referring to online tutorials.
However, although there is a lot of information online about some specifics and Spring have a good introductory tutorial nothing comes close to the coverage of Spring in Action. Definitely a must buy for anyone wanting to learn Spring.
Great book March 25, 2008
Having bought a lot of books over the past couple of years this is definitely the best so far. It covers all the areas of Spring that you will probably need and does it in a very readable manner. Quite funny in places too.
Great first Spring book February 11, 2008
I originally started with Java Development With The Spring Framework by Johnson, etc. However, I found that although very comprehensive, the book launched into a lot of detail very early on. It seemed to assume that the reader is already a Spring user. So, I switched to the other book on my shelf, Spring In Action. I found it to be a much better introduction. It has a relaxed style that's fun to read. Overall, highly recommended.
