This is the book I have been looking to find for quite some time now. I did not want a reference manual, I have sifted through an excess of those. Instead I wanted something that helped me abstract out JDBC object persistence design so that I could implement it into my own applications and avoid having to obtain a Java Enterpise server implementation (possibly at an excessive cost in relation to my needs) and tackle the steep learning curve to administer it. The topics covered are by no means for the beginner despite the introductory chapers on relational databases and JDBC, they are just a small stepping stone to introduce the more higer level concepts explained later in the book. All in all this book is excellent if the things I mentioned are what you are looking for. You will be dissapointed though if you are mislead by the title and introductory chapters which belie its goal to teach you an abstract persitence design similar to what is used in J2EE. |
