A must but not very well written
Rating:
4 / 5
If you are a J2EE architect/developer, then you must read this book. It provides the most important and relevant patterns in J2EE design and development. I would say this book is as important as the "Design Pattern" book from the Gang of Four.
However, I'll recommend this book with reservations. It was not very well written and I had to read several times before I could understand each of the patterns, understanding that the authors were Sun employees who were more used to coding than writing a book.
Another week point is this book recommends the full use of EJB, even though if you've programmed with EJBs before, you'll know how hard it is to write EJB beans. In fact, many people consider EJB the greates failure of all J2EE components (that's also why they are ditching remote and home interfaces in EJB 3 and make entity beans POJOs).
Having said that, you still can learn a lot of things from this book.
patterns to live by

This is one book you must have in your j2ee collection or you can just forget it. If you don't apply any of these patterns you are not going to have a designed system, much less a well designed j2ee system. These guys have been through the dark and shed light on areas that we don't have to suffer through, like the back button browser solution. Never thought you could solve that one on the back-end and be browser independent. You want to know best practices, here it is, no other book comes close and within so few pages. It's pricey all right, but you'll get all of that back in robust, maintainable code. Can't beat it with a stick.
Must Read Book
Rating:

The author describied useful patterns for application architecture and design strategies for the presentation tier, business tier, and integration tier. The section on refactoring is worth reading.
i prefer to read this book if any wants to know more about j2ee patterns..
