A quick way to describe Java (tm) 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition: Platform and Component Specifications (The Java (tm) Series) would be to say it lays out the specifications of the architecture and inner workings for developing Java 2 Enterprise (J2EE) applications. It provides for example, a good overview on how a Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) Enterprise JavaBean (EJB) server is built.
Anyone who would like the specifications for each of the J2EE components in hard copy form should look to this text. Developers who are interested in understanding some of the underlying building blocks of EJB and Servlet technology or need to provide engines that conform to the specifications would find this text beneficial.
Details from security down to the basic information needed to write your own application server can be found in these pages. The book is organized well and it is interesting to read the specifications from these authors involved with Sun. This text lays out the Java Specifications for the Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (version 1.2 is covered), Servlets (version 2.2 is covered), JavaServer Pages (JSP) (version 1.2 is covered), and finally, EJB (version 1.1 is covered).
The book is not meant to be a beginning J2EE users guide. It does not make a good starter or introductory book to J2EE. This is an advanced Java book which makes a nice programmers reference if you are interested in the inner working details of J2EE.
