This book provides a good introduction to AspectJ, but I found it less-than-perfect in the way it is organized. The authors begin by going through some examples, showing the different type of things you might do with AspectJ. I kept looking for a well-defined grammar or some good description of the whole AspectJ syntax. It wasn't there.Some people will enjoy the gradual introduction of new concepts and different usage, but I found it somewhat frustrating without a good roadmap.I could probably live with the style except for the fact that the code examples were never double-checked. There are several mistakes in them, ranging from the wrong names being used (p. 90 DVDGetLoc should be allStats) to logic errors (p. 71, the last statement should be outside of the braces). I expect better quality control.I would like to see a new edition of the book written with more cohesion in the presentation and the errors in the code corrected. Until then, I'll probably look at some of the other books on AspectJ.
