I haven't had the opportunity to read Wutka's book (yet). I have read Hans Bergsten's excellent "JavaServer Pages" (O'Reilly, 2001), Marty Hall's outstanding "Core Servlets and JavaServer Pages" (Sun/Prentice-Hall, 2000) and "More Servlets and JavaServer Pages (Sun/Prentice-Hall, 2002). I am reading David Geary's "Advanced JavaServer Pages" (Sun/Prentice-Hall, 2001) now, and so far am a bit disappointed. I think Hall actually has deeper coverage, but I've only read 3 chapters so far. An excellent resource for JSP tag libraries is Shachor, et. al., "JSP Tag Libraries" (Manning, 2001).
Of course, the first treatment of the subject I ever read was Jason Hunter's 1st edition of "Java Servlet Programming." Jason, however, now believes JSP is not the best solution (see: http://www.servlets.com/soapbox/problems-jsp.html). And, of course, there is absolutely no substitute for reading the specifications themselves (java.sun.com/products/servlet, java.sun.com/products/jsp).
