Java EE 7 Essentials: Enterprise Developer Handbook

Good book. If you are looking for a book with concepts instead of code, keep looking. This book is very focused on code for each one of the JavaEE options.

Great overview of what's new in Java EE 7 with concise working examples to deepen understanding. Thank you Arun Gupta!

Nice high level overview of the new topics in J7EE. Sometimes code examples are repeated to much where the only distinction is a simple config change. Overall a good book.

Excellent introduction to JEE 7. I was updating from J2EE at 1.4 and found this book worth its weight in gold. I augmented it with other books on REST and EJB

This book doesn't know what it wants to be: a quick high level overview of the platform or a more detailed guide.It is neither. It cannot serve as an intro to Java EE for it misses to explain the bigger picture and drawns reader in unnecessary detail.And it cannot serve as a more detailed guide as the detail it provides is very patchy and not well structured.I cannot recommend this book at all.

i love this book but i need more examples ,complete examples of real world.tanks a lot Arun Gupta

fluff

This book provides a lightning quick review of all aspects of the Java EE 7 stack - including the WebSocket and JSON APIs - in about 300 pages.This is an ambitious goal especially considering that entire books have been written on what exists as a single chapter here. Consequently, what you end up with is a book that is neither an introductory text for newcomers to the technology, nor one with the details required by advanced practitioners.For e.g., the second chapter discusses all of Servlets 3.1 in 20 pages - including new features such as nonblocking I/O and upgrade processing - without the depth of coverage needed to show how they might be used effectively.Overall, since the excellent (and free) Java EE 7 tutorial covers the exact same ground and is just as readable, I'm not sure why this book was even considered necessary.In the end, I rated this book at 3-stars (It's Okay) given that it was well written, and had decent production values (proofing and technical editing).Best Wishes,~A_E

Not up to O'Reilly's normal standards. Covers a lot of ground quickly but with no explanation of why a particular approach should be used. Also poorly proof read which does not help readability.

Libro semplice da utilizzare e davvero utile per approcciare Java EE. Molto importati gli esempi per avere un approccio pratico allo studio. Consegnato in perfette condizioni

JEE7 wird kurz aber ausführlich dargestellt. Der GitHub Code ist komplett und Docker-fähig.Danke

Excellent

読んだ感覚としては、JavaEE6からの差分を薄く紹介している本です。個別の技術のAPIをひたすら紹介していくので、これを読んで、JavaEE7でアプリケーションをつくろうと思っている人はがっかりすると思います。逆に、JavaEE6を熟知していて、時間がなく、さっとJavaEE7の差分だけを知りたい人にはとても向いている本です。本を読んでみると、JBossのサイトと（完全コピー？）同じ文章もあったような気がしていて、買ってよかったという気があまりしませんでした。chap.16（現時点では未読、これから読みます)がサンプルアプリケーションの構築があるものの、あまりにEssentialすぎるな、というのが私の感想です。
