Free Java book to download: Beginning J2EE 1.4

Beginning J2EE 1.4, a great resource for Flex and LiveCycle Data Services developers

I know that the latest hot release of Java is the J2EE 5, but for many projects you'll still have to use J2EE 1.4.

So having a free book to download that talked about J2EE 1.4 is great.
Apress is here to help, by offering this freely available eBook on the 2004 published Beginning J2EE 1.4.

This book goes further than just showing you how to code a JSP or an EJB: It explains when and where to use these APIs, what their strengths and weaknesses are, and perhaps most important, how to employ the best practices for using them. Specific topics covered include:

• Creating dynamic clients using JSP and servlets
• Connecting and using databases through Java Database Connectivity (JDBC)
• Implementing business tiers using EJB
• Using Web services and XML in your enterprise applications
