It said you had to trim the review to comply with Amazon requirements and that the full version was on your blog, but I can't find it. I realize it was a while ago when you wrote the review. Did you purge it? I'm sure I will buy the book either way, as it seems to be the best book that I have skimmed. I just like to see what others have to say about them sometimes. Do you still think it is the best WebLogic book available or has a newer book assended to the top? I'm new to J2EE, so I'm just starting to get my feet wet. Any recomendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. I happened to run across your review of “WebLogic: The Definative Guide” on Amazon.com.

I remember reading an article about 2006 IT spend and 90% of the companies responding said that they were going to double or triple their IT spend on security, compliance and regulatory issues. :) That is true – And security is only going to be more important in the coming years, not less.

With security being the priority it is, I'll bet the CISSP would look great on the resume. I'll have to borrow the book when you are done. :) I agree, most certifications are a joke, but they can help to beef up a resume.

I'm not a big fan of certifications as most of them are a joke but this one will actually help our LOB and so I am planning on doing it. Now just gotta figure a way out to expense that book ;) Hi Matt and yes — I am planning on taking it.

I see you are reading (or at least own) the CISSP book. Are you planning on getting CISSP certification? I see you are reading (or at least own) the CISSP book.
