Hi, I'm looking for a single book to prepare for the SCWCD exam (along with the two specs). I've seen Marty Hall's "More Servlets and JSPs" recommended several times. Do I need read his "Core Servlets and JSPs" first? Thanks.
Thanks for your help. I think I'll go for the "More" book, only buying "Core" if I really, really have to. Books are costing me too much already. I've decided I'm going to try and get the SCWCD exam done start to finsh within six weeks. Tell me I'm mad, but I think I can do it!

No you don't have to (see More p.xxi). Core is a bit dated, (specially when he talks about Tomcat 3.0 as a "beta" version) although a lot of the material is still very informative for beginners.
http://pdf.coreservlets.com If I know this right, the URL above has free copy of Core Servlets and JSP. BUT Remember that Core.. uses Servlet 2.2 and JSP 1.1 specification whereas exam tests you on Servlet 2.3 and JSP 1.2 specs
