Building RESTful Web Services with Spring 5 Paperback – 24 January 2018

Good but less than expectations.

Ease of reading and the examples. Learning Spring projects

Nonostante un prezzo elevato il libro presenta cattiva qualità della stampa e dei contenuti.Assolutamente non adeguato ad un libro tecnico informatico.

Most of the pages are code samples, with brief and shallow explanations. It's not in depth or comprehensive. It feels like it was cobbled together just to have something to publish.

Some chapters are really simplified to explain Spring concepts, especially JWT and other chapters. The last chapter is very heavy, it could have been divided into two chapters.Overall, the book conveys Spring in a simple manner.Good:Initial Spring concepts are good withJWT concepts are goodFull CRUD operations are good in the final chapterLearned more about Postman and other important toolsJava 9.0 nicely usedNeed improvements:Some chapters are heavy

Very disappointed with this book. Poorly written. Got so frustrated by about half way through Chapter 4, I just gave up, closed the book ... never to be opened again. Unfortunately, I highlighted some content in the first three chapters, so I can't return it. Alas.Chief Complaints:* Lacks instructions to setup development environment* I had to add two maven.compiler dependencies to the POM.xml file to get their source files to build correctly* Source code snippets in the chapters are not clearly associated with the source file they belong to* Source code examples in Chapter 4 text are different than source code provided in Chapter 3 source files (e.g. Server.java)* Too many content sections that are only a paragraph or two deep* Poor writing overallI found it exceedingly frustrating working through the first four chapters. The content is poorly organized. They didn't use captions (e.g. Figure 1) to label code snippets, screen shots, etc. Just a mess.I took a chance and purchased a book that had not been reviewed yet ... and got burned.
