Google Web Toolkit Applications is an excellent book, if you\'re doing any serious GWT development. It's well written, very much in depth, and shows application patterns that will be very useful for anyone using GWT, in many cases showing concepts that are very difficult to find elsewhere. The applications demonstrate software development best practices and cover a variety of interesting techniques. It explains both basic and advanced concepts involved in building large-scale, non-trivial GWT applications. Highly recommended for those who wish to want to learn the best practices in GWT application development.
