Summary: Misguided required reading for CS students
Comment: Most people who purchase Deitel books do so because it is the required course material for their CS (pick a number) class. Deitel book are needlessly saturated with filler material that do not justify their extremely high cost. You could easily save your money and learn Java by going through the Sun tutorials which are FREE, not to mention the countless online Java tutorials out there (just do a Google search "Java Tutorials"). Stay away from this book! If you have to buy it, then please save some money by purchasing a used book.

Summary: Great book , nobody is perfect anyway ...
Comment: I wrote a review of the book sometime last year , giving it 3 stars only. But just recently I attended a short programming course on java with this book as the textbook used by the instructor. At first I was disappointed, because I already have this book for quite sometime but can't seem to learn so much, but then only through the training that I learned the technique to appreciate this book greatly : that one must type every example first, analyze the output and read the book. Second, you must supplement your learning with another book, I recommend SAMs in 21 days. Only by typing the examples and understanding it will you then appreciate this great great book.
Thanks Deitel !

Comment: Book Review:
Java How to Program, 4th ed.
Advanced Java 2 Platform How to Program
Deitel & Deitel
I finished three java programming courses at Santa Monica College two of which required the Java How to Program, 4th ed., the other was a java w/data structures course and I used the Java How to Program, 4th ed. and the instructors lecture notes. I bought the advanced book to learn more about java and the net, java 2d, 3d and j2me since I am into pc and online video games development, and data base connections with jdbc since I know sql. Design patterns and enterprise java case study give industrial strength business applications.
The authors packed and packed java into these books.
The books are easy to follow, and everything works. I found the exercises challenging but not overwelming. I have not ran across an exercise I cannot do, although some require in depth study of the topics covered. And when if all comes together it's fun. The chapters build on each other very well, and the materials moves fast and stays interesting.
The cd's have everything I need to get started: what to install, how to install it, how to set the environment. The forte community edition is packed with java building and debugging tools that make java programming faster and easier to follow. Try the Reformat Code tool, and check out the text coloring.
I cannot say enough about these authors and their materials. Anybody getting into java programming will be more than satisfied for a long time.
Thank you Deitel & Associates
