Java Persistence API In EJB 3 For Professionals - Covers EJB 3.1 using GlassFish v3 Prelude

Designedfor beginners and intermediate developers, this book teaches JPA from
the ground up with an aim to get the reader up to speed with JPA as
quickly as possible. It delves deeply into the core of the JPA,
providing a sound understanding of the components that make up the
framework and the way they interact with each other.

This book
uses the learning by doing pattern with a lot of ready-to-use examples.
This pattern has proven to be the best approach for learning a new
technology. Most [if not all] of the concepts that you will find in
this book are demonstrated using well described and easy to understand
examples, yet sophisticated enough to demonstrate JPA in a real-world
context.

This book demonstrates a step-by-step guide to developing Web as well as Enterprise applications [using EJB 3
] which re-enforces all the learning that takes place throughout the
book. It also teaches how to integrate an enterprise application with Struts2. Not only this, the book also introduces EJB 3.1 [a part of Java EE 6] and demonstrates developing a IPA based EIB 3.1 application with the help of Glassfish v3 Prelude.
