It's a little long and big, which makes it ok as a reference book. It's not a good tutorial either though, because it is so long too.

Para aprender la parte básica de la programación Web en lenguaje Java. Explica claramente que es un Servlet y la diferencia con un JSP. Buen libro para iniciar con esto.

I learned that Java is hard. Web security with Java is even more difficult.

Good in terms of servlets, JSPs are quite legacy now
