Title: Don't buy this book to learn Java ...
Review: ... if you want compare your solutions to the exercises with the author's. You will have to shell out another $20 directly to the author for solutions to the exercises -- if he ever gets around to completing the writing of those solutions. At the time I am writing this review, almost 15 months have passed since the book was published -- but still no solutions to the exercises. The author's last newsletter, circulated four weeks ago, said their publication was "imminent". I wonder what "imminent" means to him?
Is the review positive or negative?
