Summary: Superficial
Comment: Although the title of the book is "Java 1.1 Interactive Course" it does not handle Java 1.1 except as supplements, I do not recommend it for people who want to learn 1.1
There are some glaring errors - on p 118 it says that the loop test in a for loop is carried out after each pass of the loop! On page 141 main() does not instantiate the class Car. Some more care in proof reading is called for.
The chapters on abstract classes and interfaces are very short, and remain abstract.
The form of the quizzes as multiple choice questions isn't very good for learning - small exercises would be much more effective
Rating: 1
Summary: Poorly written
Comment: I was looking through this in a bookstore to see if it would be a good recommendation for a friend wanting to learn java. Save your money. Lemay turns simple concepts into convoluted blather. There are better books with fewer errors.
Rating: 1
Summary: Anyone who buys this book should have his/her head examed!
Comment: 1. This book contains too many erors. most examples do not work. 2. It has NO JAVA 1.1 in it. 3.How it got published is a mystery. Anyone wants to learn JAVA needs to look elsewhere. this one SUCKS! To Laura (the author) Do this world a favor,write about things you really know and write less. T.I.A
