Title: Outdated and offers only tacit coverage of depth or breadth
Review: Being somewhat new to the Java language I purchased Java in a Nutshell by David Flanagan as a resource for understanding of the Java language as well as a reference source. I have found this book to be extremely outdated and covers just the minimum of syntax as well as classes. The java class descriptions and coverage is a barely more than a summary of the variables and methods extracted from the java source. There has been a significant number of java classes since Java 1.1 which the reader would do better by getting the descriptions and sources from the javasoft website.
