I'd like to comment on the overall appearance of the book. First of all, I have


to say that I'm positively surprised by the thoroughness and quality of writing


of the author Richard Monson-Haefel. I find his book very instructive and


it makes for a decent lead-in to the EJB subject. The book is well organized


and every chapter builds on knowledge aquired in former chapters.


The content of the book notwithstanding, I have to give the bookbinding a huge


thumbs-down. Try to work with the book, make annotations, and leaf through the


chapters and not see any of the pages come off !


Please, please, please provide your books with a more durable backbinding.


If that is more expensive for you, I'm willing to pay more money for your


otherwise execellent books, okay ? The binding of the Enterprise JavaBeans book


is definitely unworthy of O'Reilly and Associates.


Best regards,


D. Fahrenholtz
