Title: Using Java1.2
Review: Yes and No. The book is excellent at giving an overview of many concepts that are pertinent to understanding the plethora of all that comprise the Java technology and how it all generally works together. But as for an intermediate rated programming book with lots of programming examples, it is terrible. The book is notorious for talking about Java programming concepts and never showing you how to do it nor giving effective coding samples. As for presenting Java programming, the book reminds me of bumping into somebody in bar who claims to be a "Java developer/programmer" and talks all the snappy terminology. Then when you ask them a specific question, they change the subject.
