How to add Object in using model.addAttributes in Spring MVC

I'm trying to retrieve the user information from DB and display in the front end (JSP) using Spring MVC.

Inside the controller, currently I'm adding the following code,

                     ModelMap model;
        model.addAttribute("email", user.getEmailAddress());
        model.addAttribute("name", user.getuserName());
        model.addAttribute("birthday", user.getBirthday());
    model.addAttribute("street",user.getUserAddress().getStreet_address());
        model.addAttribute("state", user.getUserAddress().getState());
        model.addAttribute("city", user.getUserAddress().getCity());
        model.addAttribute("zip", user.getUserAddress().getZip());
        model.addAttribute("country", user.getUserAddress().getCountry());

In the front-end JSP, I display them using ${email} ,${name} ,${birthday} etc . However I would like to do something like this,

ModelMap model; model.addAttribute("user",user);

and in front end , display as ${user.getName()}. However this is not working . Can you let me know if there are any other ways to do this ?

Don't forget the JSP option isELIgnored="false" as below: 

<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" isELIgnored="false"
pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1"%>

In controller add as below

    ModelMap model = new ModelMap();
    model.put("user", user);

In jsp use like this

    ${user.name}

Or there is another option - to use @ModelAttribute like this: http://krams915.blogspot.com/2010/12/spring-3-mvc-using-modelattribute-in.html (contains Model and ModelAttribute examples).
