[Harit Himanshu]

As a beginner to Java 4 years back, this was my first book and my learning experience was wonderful

[Sara Rocutto]

Questo consistente manuale di Java in due volumi è estremamente interessante e utile per chi un pochetto già ne capisce di programmazione.

[Cameron]

This book goes into a good amount of detail about most topics it covers. It does however spend less time than I would have liked on things like generics. Overall, it is probably the best non-single-topic-specific Java series book I have read.
