This book is an excellent resource for a beginner to object oriented programming languages to get a handle on Java and the basic concepts of OOP. Even if you are a complete novice to programming or the basic logic involved (i.e. loops, if – else if statements), this book will be valuable to you, though you may struggle initially with a few of the logical concepts. The book starts with the basics, provides well commented examples and avoids overwhelming the reader by initially avoiding topics that are irrelevant to a complete beginner to Java and OO programming.

This book is absolutely horrible for individuals that are new to the Java language. If you are coming from another language then this book is a great learning tool. If you are new to programming avoid this book like the plague. I was required to use it for a Intro to Java class and spent most of my time in other text books or youtube. I found myself doing the homework out of this book and learning from other media. The book defines many terms with the term and answers questions with questions.

This books was required for a Java programming class I am taking this summer. The book is ok as a reference tool for someone who has a pretty good working knowledge of Java. I am a novice to Java and I have found this book to be lacking in the teaching tools I would have expected. Not much detail on that area. If you have a working knowledge of Java already this would be a great companion reference tool. If not, I would look for something else.
