"Beginning Hibernate 3: From Novice to Professional, is written for users experienced in using Java with databases (the traditional, or ""connected"" approach) but inexperienced in the use of the open source lightweight Hibernate, the most popular de-facto object-relational mapping and database-oriented application development framework. Experienced author, Dave Minter, with contributor Jeff Linwood, provides more in-depth examples than other books for Hibernate beginners and avoids direct competition with the theory-biased book Hibernate In Action published by Manning, by offering lively, example-based discourse. Beginning Hibernate 3 is packed with brand new information on the latest release of the Hibernate persistence layer and provides a clear introduction to the de facto standard for object relational persistence in Java. Readers will be able to get started right away with building transaction-based engines and applications."
