This book has good stuff, especially when you are preparing for JSF (1Z0-896)exam. Though the book doesn't explain :
* Authorization in detail,
* web.xml security declarations
* CDI beans, Managed beans and EJB beans with clarity
* Programming with JSF APIs. Atleast few APIs like ConfigurableNavigationHandler, NavigationHandler etc should have been covered.
* Implicit Objects in JSF

Wow this is a good read. Geary and Horstmann have authored a very readable guide to JSF basics and provide clear code examples along the way. The last couple chapters (which I believe are new to this addition) give some insight into using Ajax and incorporating data persistence into a typical Faces app.

I really liked this book. I learned JSF years ago by camping out with an earlier edition of this book. This new version is just as good, adding updates that cover what's new in JSF 2. I found the text to be very readable and approachable. If you're using JSF, this book should be on your shelf.

This seems like a fairly good introduction to JavaServer Faces, but I changed jobs and no longer need to read it.

Really good book.

Leaves out some elements and doesn't explain others as well as I needed, but it was a good primer for JSF. And just as soon as I'm done reading it, I'm no longer on the UI team at work.

Read this semester for my computer science 3 course. Solid primer on using Java in enterprise web applications and, from the students perspective, a solid textbook as well.

I do not like JSF, otherwise I would probably rate higher.

This book is one of the wonderful books in order to learn the JSF basics.
