Short and to the point

I choose this book to know about the changes and New feature in java 7. Air need to say that the author has done a wonderful job. He has put out some new features and upgrades in a short manner.
It's a free book a plus and amazing double plus.

A mini ebook that keeps short and is spot on. It is almost like a blog article, and was just what I was looking for.

A good summary of the new features in Java 7. A bit brief at times, but still an interesting, topical discussion, with examples where appropriate.

Luckily I got the Kindle version for free. Nothing I didn't already know.

It is not really a book, there are articles longer than the this 10-pages book. But actually the contents of this so called book are as the title says, what is new in Java 7. Straight to the point. Read it, and you are on your way to start using JDK7.

Nice intro in the changes to the language but not that well balanced I would have liked some more details in the part about supporting dynamism. It doesn't do more than saying it exists. No code sample either. The part about switching on strings is so trivial it could have done without a code sample.

Quick intro to the new language features of Java 7 with code samples. Thumbs up.

Useful for a quick overview of new Java features, but it explains nothing.

Basic and uninformative introduction to the changes in Java 7.
