To give a brief background about myself. I have been one of the primary contributor and committer of the Web Tools Platform (WTP) eclipse tools project since its inception through WTP 1.5 release. I contributed the Validation Framework component for this project. I read a large portion of this book and can say that this most comprehensive book that explains the complete WTP in a step by step fashion that can be help you easily understand the whole WTP project, its sub projects, its components and features through several real world examples. I strongly recommend this book to all users and contributors of WTP.

Eclipse Web Tools Platform: Developing Java(TM) Web Applications
This is an excellent book; I specially liked the iterative approach (for example, for presentation tier, iteration 1: HTML, iteration 2: add CSS, iteration 3: add Javascripts, iteration 4: XML and XSLT, iteration 5: DTD)authors have taken. I have used examples from this book, with Eclipse and NetBeans, of course for Eclipse user this book has added value, since it goes through configuration of Eclipse and recommended practices. Please ignore the gripe about errors in the code; there are two minor errors which are detailed in the errata on book's companion site, it doesn't take more than a minute to fix those two issues. Authors discuss All three tiers in great detail. How about this, by page 85 you would be deploying a simple web service (and you would be amazed how simple it is).

Though I have had some experience in Java, Eclipse, and WTP, a recent project required me to get more into depth. This book got me through the whole development process. It explained to me clean coding techniques when writing web apps in Java, how to get my web server up and running for use with WTP, to get my apps to talk to the server, debugging using different tools, and unit testing in a web environment.
This book was an invaluable addition to my collection, and is also a great reference now that I have mastered these concepts. (Review Data Last Updated: 2008-03-31 19:36:22 EST)

It is quite ironic how the authors state on p.8 that they "have taken great care to ensure that all source code listings actually work", when already by page 82 I have dug myself out of some MANY bugs in the code, that it makes me just dizzy thinking about what the next 600 pages are going to bring!
Perhaps I am a bit harsh on the 2/5 rating... (Review Data Last Updated: 2007-11-18 12:16:59 EST)
