Title: it's a good deal
Review: If you have no experience in programming this book should be the first one you pick up. Gives you a good start to learning the java programming language. It is not the all in one java book, so you should also pick up a reference book also for more in depth definitions, try the java bible. Remember this is just to get you started, and is a perfect chioce for doing so.
