Our book would help you work on enterprise UIs in two cases:
- If you need to use
Java 2D, in which case our book will help you understand many things about it, especially images
- If you want to "pimp" your UIs
This book is different from Desktop Java Live in that it doesn't teach you how to be productive with Swing. It shows you techniques you can use to make your UIs more appealing. But it requires time. Don't try to do this if you are already beyond your schedule
