Mastering Spring 5

The author is good about explaining the concepts that underlie the Spring Framework, but bad on showing the reader how to implement them in code. The examples are not clear and often lead to more questions than they answer. It's a real let down because after reading about the concept, you want to try it out, but it's hard to do that using the examples in the book.

I recommend this book this to all as this book is very easy to understand and step by step incremental approach to increase the knowledge gradually. A great book for mastering Spring 5.

The progression is tedious. Sure he walks you through configurations and dependencies but the project examples are so basic or have no real functionality to be of any use. There is nothing effective about this book as a guide to build enterprise applications because the book doesn't even come remotely close to building anything enterprise related.
