1 Introduction to the Java language
Lots of people teach and write, but few know what they are doing. This book has nearly 1200 pages and will gently guide you into the wonderful but complicated world of data-driven programming using the Java language. Hat off to the professor!
2 High quality writing, very nicely written and organized.
I loved how the author used diagrams and step-by-step code snippets with plenty of annotation leading to the full code. Sounds like any other good java book out there, but for some reason the reading was smooth and logical. His use of class diagrams helps the reader not get lost in the maze of classes and packages. I loved the Java I/O chapter. Thourough and clear treatment! This book contains rich, color illustrations. The book uses high quality paper which gave the book a heavy feel.

Quote of the Day:


A Scholar asked his Master, "Master, would you advise me of a proper

vocation?"
The Master replied, "Some men can earn their keep with the power of
their minds. Others must use thier strong backs, legs and hands. This is
the same in nature as it is with man. Some animals acquire their food easily,
such as rabbits, hogs and goats. Other animals must fiercely struggle for
their sustenance, like beavers, moles and ants. So you see, the nature of
the vocation must fit the individual.
"But I have no abilities, desires, or imagination, Master," the
scholar sobbed.
Queried the Master... "Have you thought of becoming a salesperson?"

The marvels of today's modern technology include the development of a
soda can, when discarded will last forever ... and a $7,000 car which
when properly cared for will rust out in two or three years.
