Designed for experienced Java programmers, this guide shows how to access the data housed in databases and on the Internet and Intranet. It explains in the text and sample programs the new JDBC API... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I don't agree that this is an RMI/JDBC marketing book. But I believe that "Using Enterprise Java" is a misleading title. This book does *not* cover the 800-pound gorilla that is all of Enterprise Java, but it far exceeds the countless introductory clones that all seem to have the same Table of Contents. This is a deep drive into RMI and JDBC. As this is more than just some abstract theory book, it's not bedside reading - but it has some great models for how to get your brain around relational databases in Java's object oriented world, including the quite good Chapter 7, "Object/Relational Mapping".
Good reference for real-world 3-tier Java development.

I am developing a 3-tier Java RMI based application, and found this book to be a great reference. Excellent coverage of RMI and JDBC, with alot of good example code. The section on developing RMI JDBC applications has been a big help on my current project. I haven't had time to read the whole book, but it appears to cover the use of Java w/CORBA and other topics in an equally thorough and practical way. A real bargain, especially w/the $10 rebate!
