Personal Bookshelf

A free service of MacMillan Publishers to let you browse 200 computer books on-line. They have titles from Adobe, Cisco, Queue, Sams and Ziff-Davis. They also have Betabooks — previews of books not yet published. There are some Java books in the suite. The catch is you have to fill in form after form giving all manner of data about yourself including answers to personal questions that are none of their damn business. What is even more infuriating is the questions are not optional. The other catch is the server is heavily overloaded resulting in slow response, timeouts and various server errors.

1250 pages. This is a great doorstop of a book. It has a few chapters on client-server programming in Java, and a section of that is on CGI. I have looked at hundreds of Java books and found nothing that deals in depth with client side Java talking to CGI, except Marty’s book. It is really very simple and he does an excellent job of explaining it. Marty has posted all the source code examples from the book for anyone to use. These contain updates and errata fixes you don’t get on the CD-ROM that comes with the book.
