This week, Apress publishes its second book on the popular open source Java EE 5 (EJB 3-JSF) contextal application development framework, JBoss Seam. Written by enterprise Java expert and best selling author, Jim Farley, Practical JBoss Seam Projects lets you build several key “real-world” enterprise and Web-related enterprise Java applications.

Unlike any other Seam book on the market, this book lets you use what you’ve built as a framework/tempate for possible use in your own practice. Then, customize from there. This book is the ideal lab and code reference, beyond what a recipes or cookbook can do.

What do you think? If you’re at OSCON, come by and take a look at this new book. Otherwise, it should be at your favorite reseller soon. Enjoy.
