Title: NOT a book for learning to program in Java
Review: This book is like the K&R C language book. It has many definitions and serves well for a REFERENCE dictionary if you are interested in finding out the terms in Java. If you memorize everything in this book, it is useful to take the SUN certified exam. But it is NOT a book to learn Java programming. The examples are two few and bad. I have taught Java and Advanced Java in the last 4 years in companies and colleges. Students cannot learn ANY Java programming from this book if it is the first book they use.Don
