Comments on: GWT Java Ajax Programming Book Review http://www.gwtsite.com/gwt-java-ajax-programming-book-review/ Learning about the Google Web Toolkit (GWT) Thu, 12 Aug 2010 22:53:48 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.1 hourly 1 By: Ryan http://www.gwtsite.com/gwt-java-ajax-programming-book-review/comment-page-1/#comment-1907 Ryan Wed, 18 Apr 2007 03:57:47 +0000 http://www.gwtsite.com/?p=56#comment-1907 I recently ordered this from amazon.com , I was told it was ordered to print. so I expected 6-8 weeks to receive it. I actually got it in 2 weeks which was cool. The book is very informative, written by someone who understands the purpose and specifics of the GWT. The english in it, isn't the greatest. There is an assumed knowledge of JAVA. there is also an assumed knowledge of other parts of the webstack. I certainly wouldn't recommend this for total beginners to any web programming. I am only in the first few chapters.. but for addressing - the big picture - specific examples - problems worked through and explained I would agree the book is a 8 of 10. At this point in time, I couldn't find any other options, so for early adopters, it's worth the spend.
