Terrible And Overpriced
25 February, 2003
I am presently taking a Java course using this book and I cannot understand how anyone found that this book was well written or easy to understand. The author adds unnecessary elements to most of his examples, which confuses the reader, especially when the example is dealing with an abstract concept. I'm up to chapter 8 now and doing well in the course, despite the shortcomings of this book. At this point I find the book to be mediocre at best. I would definitely not recommend it to anyone, especially if you haven't had any programming experience. I'm sure there are better and CHEAPER books out there on Java.

Great Book
16 April, 2004
This is a great book if you learn by example like I do. This is a college freshman level book. It was used at Texas A&M in 2002-03 and I believe it is still in use in 04. If you learn better by example than by pages and pages of theory, this is the book for you.

Where's The Beef?
04 October, 2002
I am a computer science student and have programmed in numerous languages including BASIC, COBOL, FORTRAN, HP SPL, C, and DELPHI (PASCAL). The course I am following based on this text is my first exposure to Java and Borland's JBuilder. While the text provides many sample programs, the applications are very specific and rather contrived. If you are an experienced programmer new to Java, you will find this text to be a poor reference. The skills most important to getting started with JBuilder, creating a new project and managing the files, are dealt with very summarily and may end up causing you hours of frustration. If you're planning to learn at home, I suggest searching a bit further before settling for this book.

Awful Introduction To Java Book
24 March, 2003
This book is not an introduction book. If you have little or no programming experience, do not buy this book. Other than being overpriced, the author introduces topics that are way too advanced for the beginner. This book is probably better for individuals that have some background in programming. Save yourself the money and find another book. The author should really consider revising this book. I think he has lost touch with the readers of his text in calling it an "Intro" book. I found other books at 1/3 the price that was much better. Total waste of money!
