    I am an experienced Java developer, who has been a bit outside of the normal "code-slinging-daily" tasking for a while, and needed to gain formal knowledge of the full spring framework. I purchased this book as a companion to the Spring 5 Certification centric text that this author also worked on. Both texts are exactly what I needed to formalize my knowledge and fill in the gaps that I kept missing on interviews, due to having hands-on knowledge, without the formal education on Spring technologies.

    It's just a technical manual. It is extremely wordy and unpleasant to read if you aren't already a seasoned, salaried professional programmer. I got through a couple chapters as a novice, but I feel I would have benefitted greatly if I had just picked an easier book.

    You really want to have some experience with enterprise application development if you are looking at this book, because the "hello world" program is written like an enterprise app

    It covers a lot of topics but doesn't really go in depth the way I like. Maybe just a personal preference as to the way it was written. I also purchased the Spring 5 Recipes from the same publisher and found it to be much more useful.Spring 5 Recipes: A Problem-Solution Approach

    I had read the Spring 4 version of Spring Recipes and really found it an invaluable book, so when I was looking for an updated version of that book on the publisher’s website, I saw this was a featured title. The publisher graciously provided me with a review copy of the book, so I set aside some time during the course of a few weeks to read it.

    The Spring Framework is vast with new projects being added every year, so any author writing a book about Spring will need to decide whether to mention every topic and say at least something about it or say more about fewer topics/projects. This book strikes a good balance by giving enough information and example code to the reader so that they can at least navigate through the Spring website to find the Spring project in question. The book does seem to cover just about everything in “core” Spring, even if that is only a paragraph or so for the topics that are merely mentioned.

    I have been using Spring for about 10 years and feel it has truly allowed me to write more structured applications. I use it for many projects and tasks, like analysis, report generation, etc. in the context of my Eclipse IDE. From the beginning, I had issues with the application context being initialized. So many comments on places like stackoverflow.com would tell you that it should just work and you shouldn’t have to write code to perform initialization. This book is the only place I have ever seen it mentioned that if you are not using an actual server container, the initialization won’t automatically happen! That nugget of information would have saved me a lot of grief over the years!

    Like most books, this one uses a problem domain to help explain the code and this one is based on the music of John Mayer. I don’t know a lot of his songs, but they use the domain in a very instructive way.

    The writing and editing are very good. I have purchased a few other Spring books and I feel this is the place one should start.

    In my opinion, it's the best book to get hands on experience on Spring 5.
    The book is completely updated with respect to Pro Spring 4 and examines all aspects of one Enterprise Application, named Singers.
    I think this is major asset of the book, comparing with competitions that are either mostly theoretical or examine different toys
    applications not related to each other.
    The application Singers of this book is fully functional and one will benefit by building, running, and debugging the Application.
    Congratulation to Iuliana Cosmina for a great job on creating this Application and updating the book!

    Well written and structured

    Cons:
    Outdated as java 11 is released, the book talks about 9 builds being early released
    Not fully updated on spring 5 as it wasn't fully released

    It’s great that they have you work along with them to make and reuse code but the book lacks in the beginning by assuming you know the very basics of spring.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Enormous amount of errors in the book but if you know java and are determined enough then it is ok.
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 6, 2020
    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    Frankly the errors are just too many to count, they are literally all over the place. You really need to be determined to get through this. If you can see past the many errors and get stuck in ( I stopped reading the code in the book and stuck to the github code as the book was that bad ) then it is ok. Don't get me started on the github code and the too complex gradle config and poor directory naming though. Frankly altogether the poor quality control cost me at least a day. But if you can see past all the problems there is some good information in it. I can't recommend it without saying you have to be really determined and also know Java pretty well.

    Reviewed in Germany on October 7, 2018
    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    Covered:
    Fifth Edition, (c) 2017

    Pro:
    The book is a good read with extensive information about every aspect of programming with Spring. There are many listings and accompanying text which results in a very good understanding of the subject. The book is well organized and may serve as a reference for daily work.

    Contra:
    There are a lot of bugs in the listings as well as in the text. Some listings refer to a different project with address data (instead of the example music database covered by the book), copy and paste errors, and misleading text hinder the newbie to unfold the full potential. An experienced developer can easily spot the mistakes, though.

    Conclusion:
    Recommended for the experienced developer who wants to get an overview of the features of Spring in order to get ideas for implementing his or her own stuff.
    Not recommended for newbies or readers which hate errors.
