Product Description
If HIBERNATE makes Java-based, data-persistence, so incredibly easy to perform, then why do all of the most popular resources make Hibernate technology so darned impossible to learn? Well, learning Hibernate doesn't have to be hard anymore; not with a copy of HIBERNATE MADE EASY by your side! Cameron McKenzie's, Hibernate Made Easy, finally brings to light the idea that a technology that is fun and easy to use, should also be fun and easy to learn. Building upon simple, straight forward examples that make even the most difficult topics easy to understand, this book explores all of the key concepts that you absolutely must know in order to start effectively leveraging the Hibernate framework. Discarding the old, XML based, -hbm- mapping files, Hibernate Made Easy will show you how to simplify your designs by leveraging both Hibernate and JPA annotations together, making your applications more manageable, maintainable, and most importantly, faster and easier to develop! From the fundamental, Create, Retrieve, Update & Delete operations, to the mapping of complex inheritance hierarchies, Hibernate Made Easy explains it, using a friendly and conversational style that reads less like a technical book, and more like an informative conversation with a Hibernate expert. And while the examples in the book are incredibly easy to follow and reproduce (---there are no code errors in this book -- that is guaranteed!---), the concepts this book will help you learn will empower you to solve even the most daunting programming challenges. From managing transactions over an HTTP based request-response cycle, to implementing highly advanced Data Access Objects (DAOs) with Java 5 generics, this book will teach you what you really need to know about Java based persistence with Hibernate. If you want to learn Hibernate, if you want to learn Hibernate quickly, and you want it explained in a manner that is easy to follow and understand, there really is no other choice.

This is really the book that the Hibernate industry needed. Loaded with independent examples, written in a funny and interactive manner, and covering all of the fundamentals you need to really understand Hibernate, and get the most out of your persistence layer.
This is far and away better than any other Hibernate learning guide on the market.

I bought "Hibernate in Action" earlier...but couldn't manage to read the book out of my office hours. And when I started reading the book..I realized there were not many examples and this book was not meant for lazy readers like me.
I was looking for a book that gives me a quick understanding of Hibernate with solid examples... and finally it turned out to be the book by Cameron McKenzie "Hibernate made easy"!
I get demotivated when I see bible like books..but this is a small and light weighted book :)
Author has re-presented the examples/topics covered in the earlier pages again when ever needed so one need not turn the pages back for reference.
Finished the first 4 chapters in just 5 hours or so... yet to read the left over chapters.

well... I was tentative to buy this book and I was disappointed when I received it as I found the pages are full of texts!! However, When I started reading I came to recognise that it is amazing,,, Although it has descriptive style, it is great for starters.... When I learn new technology, I always find the configuration is the most difficult bit, this book provides step by step guidelines,,, and Also I find it is very useful when the author asks the questions come in my mind.... Another advantage, if you read a chapter depends on another chapter you skipped, the author will put you on the context so you do not need to go back again....
I'm still reading it and I strongly recommend this book

Way to much unnecessary text
The book will get you through learning Hibernate with JPA which is why you are considering the book in the first place. But man, it is dull. Read more

An excellent introduction for Hibernate novices
I really enjoyed McKenzie's writing style (which is chatty and friendly) and his efforts to keep the code segments lean, simple and reproducable on two pages at most. Read more
