Summary: FINALLY, A GREAT JAVA BOOK COVERING JDK1.3 & CURRENT INFO!
Comment: EXCELLENT BOOK!

This is a new edition published in September 2000. It is a completely revised, updated and expanded version which covers the latest features of Java 2 including JDK 1.3. I found the Swing classes covered very systematically in the 4 chapters and particularly easy to understand. The book covers the Swing classes which are part of the JFC (Java Foundation Classes library) for adding graphical user interface. The information in Appendix is specially useful, informative and clear. The author seems to have taken special efforts to make us understand setting up of the PC for Classpath and Path, often a source of trouble if not understood and set up properly. The examples in the book are presented in a clear precise manner unlike in many other books on the subject which leave a lot to guess in the absence of supporting comments.

Coverage of JavaBeans, RMIs and digitally signed applets is impressive.

Overall, I would rate this book one of the best and a great value for your money!

Summary: Great book for programmers - especially C/C++ programmers!
Comment: I bought this book because I wanted to learn Java and I liked Laura Lemay's "Teach Yourself Web Publishing with HTML 4 in 21 Days." I knew C and a little C++ from doing some game programming and a class I had back in '96. I understand the flow and logic of programming in C and I was hoping I could carry it over to Java (since they are somewhat similar). This book took me step by step, chapter by chapter in understanding the true beauty of this language! It wasn't easy, mind you, but it wasn't overly difficult. If I didn't know C/C++, it would have been much tougher. I'd recommend complete beginner's go with the "Teach Yourself Java 2 in 24 Hours" book as some other reviewers have stated. If you know C/C++, this book is perfect! I'm glad I bought the book and it's going on my shelf for reference :).

Summary: the best java book!
Comment: I have read pretty much every book that the RI CLAN library system has on java and general computer programming and I have never seen a better book on java developement. It taught me almost everything I know about java, and I have read every almost edition. Although I regret that this version does not have as much coverage of threads, awt interfaces, or applets as the 2nd edition, it has better coverage of OOP and I finally figured out how to get the jdk command line tools to work! This book is perfect for anyone of beginner or intermediate knowlege of Java, or it will teach you java and OOP from scratch! Also good to buy as a desk refrence for all those difficult functions.
