Title: Not a book to learn to code Java
Review: If you have any in depth programming experience whatsoever, this book is worthless. It ruminates over all of Java's abilities and could be a good reference. If you understand programming constructs and algorithms, this is not the book to get up and running quickly. It is way too fundamental. I was looking for something to get me going quickly as I have much coding experience. I spent a lot of time reading through this book only to come away feeling like I had just taken programming 101 over again.
Is the review positive or negative?
