I am just about finished dog-earing a copy of Pekowsky's book and find it
just a little light for my taste, meaning that it takes quite a few pages to
get into the deeper stuff (e.g. the relationship between JSP and Java
beans). Co-worker recommendations and flipping through a copy suggest that
"Web Development with JavaServer Pages" (Duane K. Fields and Mark A. Kolb)
will answer many questions that Pekowsky's book raised for me. As of a few
minutes ago, Amazon reviewers gave this one five stars!
Pekowsky approaches the Java end of things very gently, hoping to
ease non-programmers into it. You may want to think about how intimidating
this is for you. If Fields and Kolb's book is not step 1 for you, it may be
a good step 2.
