The Spring Framework is a major open source application development framework that makes Java/J2EE(TM) development easier and more productive. This book shows you not only what Spring can do but why, explaining its functionality and motivation to help you use all parts of the framework to develop successful applications.
You will be guided through all the Spring features and see how they form a coherent whole. In turn, this will help you understand the rationale for Spring's approach, when to use Spring, and how to follow best practices. All this is illustrated with a complete sample application. When you finish the book, you will be well equipped to use Spring effectively in everything from simple Web applications to complex enterprise applications.
What you will learn from this book
* The core Inversion of Control container and the concept of Dependency Injection
* Spring's Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP) framework and why AOP is important in J2EE development
* How to use Spring's programmatic and declarative transaction management services effectively
* Ways to access data using Spring's JDBC functionality, iBATIS SQL Maps, Hibernate, and other O/R mapping frameworks
* Spring services for accessing and implementing EJBs
* Spring's remoting framework

May be a challenge for a beginner
I think this is a book you would use as a reference for getting deeper into the understanding of concepts and being aware of the options for configuration and implemention of various aspects of the framework. But you would need to already understand the basics of Spring.
If you want a Spring tutorial that will help you start building Spring applications from basic concepts, especially if you are a beginner, you may struggle with this book. You get explanation of concepts and code snippets, but you may need to read other books and online articles that are written more in a tutorial style.

Can't really say
I lent it to a guy on my development team, and now I can't seem to get it back. He must like it. (!)
One thing I really appreciated was the comparative tables showing benefits and tradeoffs of using the different web frameworks with Spring. The book does seem a bit shallow for the number of topics presented -- should have been a couple thousand pages to cover everything I'd like to know.
User review
Wasted my time
Very incomplete information and examples, the missing pieces being crucial. Overall, poorly and inaccurately written. The authors jump into details before giving the reader the context into which the details should fit. The examples are three-line snippets that fail miserable in showing how to put all the pieces together. Lots of features covered in very short sections that never explain how to use the framework to build a system from beginning to end. Only confused me and wasted my time. I'm at the point of giving up on Spring.

A waste of treeware
This book is TERRIBLE! Almost as bad as the Spring manual itself which doesn't surprise me because it was written by the same people.
Some examples give good detail but they are VERY hard to follow. For most things that I want to do, there is little or no examples.
For example, there is no mention of Acegi taglibs.
If you want a better book, try the Manning `Spring In Action` book. I have that one too and it is much, much better.
