Rating:
a good book to read 
The begining chapters are good for beginners, especially for people to use TomCat. Overall, it is good book to read.
The later chapters are advanced but not detailed enough for reference. They explain concepts. But they are advanced so not many readers care about it and they may think these pages are waste.
The samples are very good to run without issue when you check logs in this book's website.
One thing I don't like is it uses pages to explain Servlet which is not very popular in the world now.
I have been working on all tiers of web applications. I think the reviewers gave low score to this book are really new comer to the Java world. .
Good Book for a Beginner 
I would recommend this book as a starter for anyone making the initial transition to Java Web Development. I bought this book and I thought it was a good resource to start developing JSP based Servlet based web applications. There are many books on the shelf, not as many as in years before, and in truth most of them are not worth the paper they are written on. But these books are normally published by the same company. Addison Wesley usually publishes good quality material.
Good book for the right audience.
.
Good book 
Do not believe Januski. I rate it 5 stars just because Ken Januski underrated it. I can suppose he simply dous not know what he is talking about. This is far not the "worst book", this book is good and it actual rating must be 4 stars.
The only one lack is that it is not suitable as your first book on the topic. Servlets are explained on only 70 pages, there are not many examples there, so you need some knowledge to read this book. But anyway, its worth buying.
