I just got a FedEx package with my first author’s copy of Java Enterprise in a Nutshell, 3rd Edition. It should be in bookstores and shipping from Amazon soon. I’m very attached to this book, particularly since it was the first book I ever signed a writing contract for, back in December of 1997, almost eight years ago.
As I’ve said before, I think the third edition is a great book. It’s up to date on all the technologies and tools you need to do enterprise development well in Java. One stop shopping. Makes a great Christmas gift, too.
