What People are saying about this
J. Stanley Warford
Unlike most Java books, this one does not try to teach programming. It is a reference book on the language, which is exactly what I need for my course. The approach is especially useful because of the ingenious use of systematic examples that I can pick and choose from to demo in the lecture. There is really nothing quite like this approach in any other text of which I am aware.
Richard Pattis
The triple espresso of Java books. Rich and dense with information.
