This is the right book if you need to implement RESTful code in your app!
The book start with a quick introduction to the RESTful system, giving you an idea on how to setup the project and the best practices, but in the next chapters you go deeper to discover all the features of JAX-RS. The author will guide you on the implementation of a complete RESTful application and explains how to "consume" the resources not only with the browser (or curl), but with other platform, like mobile devices.

REST Services are the glue that modern day web applications are built on. Often it is easy to get carried away and design a REST endpoint in any which way you want because the HTTP protocol makes that possible. But given the fact that APIs are becoming important and that clients expect high quality REST Endpoints that implement the correct RESTful style taking all the HTTP verbs into action, it is critical that you adhere to best practices. And this is where this book fits in perfectly.

Quick but intensive guide to real world RESTful problems and solutions.
All aspects are covered with short code fragments, good explanations and a useful list of external references.
API design, security, authentication, performances and RESTful services future trends are covered in dedicated chapters.
This is not a primer to JAX-RS but a good starting point for everybody involved in RS design.

Mostly all PacktPub books I’ve read are written using this no nonsense style, containing a lot of information in a limited amount of pages, yet remaining understandable. “Restful Java Patterns And Best Practices” is no exception upon this, covering all basic and some of the more advanced topics of JAX-RS and Jersey. Provided with a nice set of small code examples, as well as an overview on the REST APIs of GitHub, Facebook and Twitter, this book can be proven useful when learning REST or just as

Good short book. Wish it had provided more guidance on securing REST APIs.
