Title: Might be good for beginners...
Review: I'm a fairly experienced developer who's fairly new to Struts. I've been learning on my own, but felt a great desire for something to give me a boost. I heard a few good things about this book, so I bought it rather excitedly -- after all, it's the newest book, so it ought to be the most complete, right?I found this book *seriously* lacking. Its example applications are trivial and its explanation of anything Struts is almost completely superficial. As an example, the book claims to cover Struts 1.1 but didn't mention Map-backed ActionForms at all -- and hardly mentioned DynaForms, other than showing one simple example.In summary, the writing style is quite good, the introductory material fair, but the detailed coverage is abysmal.
