One of the best book for spring and hibernate.

Well explained and this book will be useful for beginners and Intermediate.

Value for money.

There are lot of typos not just in the content, but also some careless mistakes in block diagrams too.
The examples and the explanation of concepts are a bit boring. There is so much text which could have been avoided using some figures.
However, if these drawbacks are ignored, its a decent read giving the required information for building Spring + Hibernate application.

Source code is also not provided anywhere, given which it will be helpful to try out examples for the readers.

Example is very less only theory has been explained...

This book is ver awsome. But page is very poor quality.

As you know this is awesome book to know the technology in depth. But, to read this book u should have minimum knowledge on J2ee architecture.

It is very good for beginners to start spring and hibernate.Only basics of all the concepts are available.

This book is written as to push down the throat of the user a ton of information about syntax and config .This makes it a very boring to read Also this book has no details as to the backend design of spring .
Thus your abilities after reading this book are limited to that version and features discussed .you are better off using documentation for reference and following online tutorials .

As usual, santosh did his charm in explaining the concepts. I liked the book and its way of explanation.

best book for begineers.flifkart's delivery is good and fast.packaging is fine.
