I also recently got this book and am enjoying it so far ... I met David Geary at the recent Atlanta No Fluff Just Stuff conference ... his talks on JSF and Tiles were excellent and down-to-earth ... his (and Cay's) writings reflect these qualities as well.

If you are Struts person thinking about learning what JSF is all about, go to your bookstore or favorite online store and pick up Core Java Server Faces by David Geary and Cay Horstmann. It's so refreshing to read a tech book that is clear and concise and provides GREAT examples as you go along. The amazing this is I'm only on page 20 and had to stop to write this review. Sure you can probably gather all the info in this book by looking at the examples and docs that are scattered around on the web, but it sure is nice to just go through a book and start seeing it all neatly put together in one place. If you are like me, you probably feel overwhelmed with the technologies out there - 'what should I start studying next syndrome.' The nice thing is this book cuts down the time it takes to get you up to speed with JSF. No fluff in this book.

Some of you have mentioned you've found my 'Struttin with Struts' site useful http://reumann.net/struts/main.do . If you liked the way the lessons were presented there, I believe you'll really enjoy this book.

And thanks also to Craig for all the time he puts on this list and elsewhere answering questions etc. Much appreciated.
