this auther deserves the book and what he got but i learned was that diograms from this book tell it self. For an example this planning and creating he does. This book has only one problem it has more than 1 explanations to somthings altough i like the quick references and programs this is a good book and i do recamend it to poeple that are professinal java programers and basic java studiers it gives the ideas we all need in programing and it is down two stars but its still an absolutly great recomended book for me.
This slim pocket guide from O'Reilly does a decccent, quick overview of Java, covering up through Java 6. By no means a complete reference or tutorial, this is a quick lookup guide meant more as a reminder than as as a learning book. A decent quick reference, but nothing in depth, which is exactly what it claims to be.
Considering that I have had to work doing Java programming and have taught it and had to do most of my university in Java, this book has been invaluable. I have gone through it over and over again, almost obsessively, looking for new delights in Java.
Unfortunately, this is the first disappointing O'Reilly animal cover book I have read. It tried to do too many thing and satisfy too many audiences in too few pages. It came up short for all of them.
