Chapters 1-8 good; Chapters 9-14 don't work 
By that I mean, Java EE 5 was not finalized so the code examples starting in chapter 9 don't work. This book was published too early. Another example is chapter 10 titled EJB Entity Beans. According to the Sun tutorial, Entity Beans have been replaced by the Java Persistence API.
Good but...
0 spec's. The book is very good until you reach chapter 9, i think the authors made this book with a no ready version of ejb 3.
When i tried to run the examples i couldn?t. I prefered to start the jboss ejb 3. 0 tutorial and i think im going to give just a glimpse to the
next chapters to see if something works.
It was good. . . until chapter 9.
Too much too fast!
However when I come to Chapter 9 and I try to run Jboss session bean samples it seems that things have changed since the moment they wrote the book. I bought this book to update my self on Java EE 5. And I'm sure specification of EJB3 and JBOss will change until final realease.
I wrote to the authors but I never had an answer to my questions, so it did the experiencie a little bit more frustrating.
I learnt not to buy books of things under development!, .
