stackoverflow error in java
<p>I'm a newbie in java.  I'm writing a class where the constructor must check the price parameter and ensure it is not a negative number. And if it is negative, it must set the price to zero.  I get a stackoverflow error when I check price. Can i get help with what I did wrong?</p>

<pre><code>public class Book
{
    private String title;
    private String author;
    private String isbn;
    private int pages;
    private boolean pback;
    private double price;

    /**
     * Constructor for objects of class Book
     */
    public Book(String bookTitle, String bookAuthor, String bookCode, int bookPages, boolean paperback, double bookRetail)
    {
        title = bookTitle;
        author = bookAuthor;
        isbn = bookCode;
        pages = bookPages;
        pback = paperback;
        price = bookRetail;
    }

    /**
     * @returns title
     */

    public String gettitle()
    {
        return title;
    }

   /**
    * @returns author
    */

    public String getauthor()
    {
        return author;
    }

   /**
    * @returns ISBN#
    */

   public String getisbn()
    {
        return isbn; 
    }

   /**
    * @return number of pages
    */ 

   public int getpages()
    {
        return pages;
    }

   /**
    * @return is book paperback
    */ 

   public boolean getpback()
    {
        return pback;
    }

   /**
    * @return retail price
    */ 

   public double getprice() 
   {
       if(getprice() &lt; 0)
       {
           return 0;
       } 
       else
       {
           return price;
       }

    }
}
