If you are a Java programmer, this book offers you a Java approach to beginning Google App Engine.

You'll also explore Java support on App Engine from end to end. The journey begins with a look at the Google Plugin for Eclipse and finishes with a working web application that uses Google Web Toolkit, Google Accounts, and Bigtable.
