| This book was a complete waste of my money and my time. The code examples dont work and it focuses on outdated maven 1. Maven is now at level 2.08 and the publishers of this book should know better than to continue putting this book out for sale. |

| The only full Maven book but falls short on being a good book. The book covers the older Maven version. I would rather wait for version 2.0 coverage than buy an out dated book. |

| While there is nothing technically wrong about this book, Maven 2 is almost a complete re-write of Maven. This book covers all the ins and outs of using Maven (the project model, dependency resolution, directory hierarchy), but the technical details are now completely out of date. |

| This book does not apply to Maven 2, the current release of Maven. May be useful concept material but because it doesn't apply to the current version of the software it is not a good "Developers Notebook". This book should be pulled from the shelves. |

This is a great book to get a quick introduction to Maven. At about 185 pages, it gets right to the point. It's written using labs and each new one builds on the previous one.
I have used Ant and know how it works but was in the dark when it came to Maven. This book gave me the knowledge I needed to understand and modify an existing Maven project within the first two chapters.
It's not a reference manual, and it's not one of these 500 page tomes that weighs a ton but is light on substance. There's real content in a very readable format in this book.
If you are new to Maven and are scratching your head tryiing to figure out what the heck this thing is doing, read this book and you will be enlightened! |
