Where's the Beef?
2 Sep 2008
Format:Paperback
I expected much more from Interface21 (now SpringSource), the developers of Spring. There is a good discussion on architecture and separation of concerns via dependency injection. There is also a good introduction to Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP). Too much space is dedicated to Spring MVC which is probably the weakest and least popular part of the Spring framework.
Integration with ORMs like Hibernate and iBatis is mentioned in passing, but there are no concrete examples. There is very little in the way of explaining integration with other web tier frameworks such as Struts, WebWork, Tapestry, etc. Given that Spring is supposedly lightweight and not intrusive,integration with other frameworks should be covered in depth. No mention of common issues like trying to inject a Spring bean into a Servlet.

Super introduction to Spring2 Framework
27 Oct 2007
Format:Paperback
This book does a fantastic job introducing the reader to the main benefits of using Spring2.
For all the key features, such as Dependency Injection, AOP, simplified Data Access, cross cutting concerns such as Transactioning, and templates for easy integration of other popular open source frameworks, the authors first cover the problem space itself, then the easy to understand Spring solutions, than any gotchas or caveats related to coding your specific Spring based solutions.
Excellent book at just the right level of detail.
Simplifies key points without forcing user to slog through the lengthy reference guide, or some of the longer Spring books available.
After reading the book, the authors correctly recommend checking out the open source code which implements Spring framework to get further confidence and knowledge of how the magic works. I have also been pleased with responsiveness of springframework.org's support forum since reading the book.

Excellently Written
15 Mar 2008
Format:Paperback
This book was exactly what I was looking for - short (300+ pages), covers several areas in both a concise and easily understandable manner. What I was looking for was a more in-depth explanation of configuring the applicationContext.xml, which I felt the authors covered well. The bonus was an excellent introduction to Spring AOP. I didn't really buy the book for that purpose, but the AOP introduction gave me enough footing to feel like I can begin introducing its concepts into my projects.
