 Not bad. March 15, 2003

This book answered many questions I had on WebObjects. The only thing I don't like is the screenshots are from a Windows environment. I would love to have screenshots from both Windows and MacOS.

It is a very good starter for learning WebObjects. ....WebObjects Framework i18N and L10n (internationalization and localization) are not covered. These are significant topics especially for Asian language web sites! It is better if this book also discuss more EOF stuff such as nested editing context, Java client EOF and multithreading issues.
A step in the right direction. July 13, 2001

This book is somewhat equivalent to the WebObjects Development 1 course offered by Apple. It might be for WebObjects 4.5, but everything in the book can be done in 5.0 without any large hassles (be sure to note that NSGregorianDate has been replaced by NSTimestamp). I haven't seen the "WebObjects5 for Java" book, however if you are wanting to learn WebObjects and looking for a book to set you on your way, this book will be a definite help. I suggest you read Apple's "WebObjects for HTML" PDF, then this book, then look at the old "EnterpriseObjects Framework Development Guide" PDF (listed under WO4.5 in Documentation on Apple's website) to get a clear view of what you are doing with regards to development with WebObjects.I'm hoping the author will make a sequel to this book which covers most of what is learned in Apple's WebObjects Development II course. WebObjects has always been the best web development tool out there, but has lacked adequate documentation; with books like this, it is possible for more than just hardcore NeXTers to appreciate the power of WO.
Beware-- It doesnt have a CD as listed May 30, 2001

The book is good, but based on WebObjects 4, not 5 which has been released.Beware, it does not have a CD as listed on the site. It is a basic book, which assists you with installation to building a site.
