I agree with Martin, that there is a lot of good information in the Java
Server programming book by Wrox. But if you wanna do JSP, pick up the
Fields/Kolb book, it is a really well-written book with great information
that you wouldnt normally get from other books.

Subject: Re: Professional Java Server Programming by Wrox?
I bought this book because it covers so many topics in a single tome.
Indeed, there is a lot of good information in there, but, in my opinion,
it's poorly presented, and hard to read and make sense of. (There's just no
comparison to the Fields & Kolb book on JSP, which is in a whole different
class - one of the best-written technical books I have seen in years.)
Also, covering so many topics means that there's a lot missing, and so many
authors means that the book seems a bit disjointed at times.
