[BOOK ANN] Struts: Practical Guide now available

[Sue Spielman <su...@hotmail.com>]

Hi, Everyone:

I'm very pleased to announce that...

The Struts Framework: Practical Guide for Java Programmers (Morgan-Kaufmann) 
is now available.

The Struts Framework: Practical Guide for Java Programmers is written for 
Java programmers who need to understand, build, and deploy Struts 
applications. It provides the systematic exploration required by newcomers 
as well as the step-by-step instruction for more experienced readers eager 
to exploit Struts to the fullest. Devoted to the latest version of the 
framework (v1.1) and vividly illustrated with a thorough sample application 
throughout, this book is an essential resource for all programmers who want 
to be part of the next stage in the evolution of the web.

Features
• Hard-to-find, practical coverage from a highly visible figure in the Java 
development world.
• Reviews all the technologies comprising Struts, including JavaServer 
Pages, Servlets, XML, Custom Tags, and web and application servers.
• Teaches readers the development practices—including design, debugging, 
internationalization, and implementation—essential to Struts development.
ˇ Provides downloadable sample code and data for use in a Struts-based 
database application via a companion web site.

What readers are saying:
I heartily endorse this book. Ever since an early copy of Sue's manuscript 
hit my desk, it has not left my side and is now well thumbed and gathering 
coffee stains from regular use.
—Simon Chappell, Java Programming Specialist with a Fortune 100 company

Sue Spielman launches the aspiring Java J2EE programmer on an exciting 
exploration of Struts-based MVC architecture and applies this knowledge in 
creating a state-of-the-art web application. No 21st Century web software 
engineering library is complete without this important book. 
—David McClure, Internet Technology Group, Fidelity Investments

I've used this book to jump start my Struts-based application development. I 
especially like the "Struts Development Cycle" that describes best practices 
for designing, implementing, and deploying a Struts project. This book has 
valuable insights that you won't find anywhere else.
—Tom Marrs, Senior Architect, Distributed Computing Solutions, Inc.


I hope this book is an asset to the Struts developer community and I'll look 
forward to hearing your feedback. You can order your copy at
