Customer comments on this selection.
 Excellent read!
I read this book years ago (I guess that was the first edition). I am ordering a replacement copy today, even though I am no longer an active programmer, because it is so good. It is one of those rare textbooks that you can actually read from cover to cover, like a novel.
Easy to follow
This is my favorite Java book. Although I have a background programming in C++, I find many of the other Java books to be cryptic or assume you wish to develop for the web. This book is straightforward and easy to read. I especially found the comparisons between Java C++ interspersed throughout the text to be helpful.
 Good started book into the world of Java
I have an older version of this book but it covers many of the core features of the language. This is a good book if you are looking to start
br /programming in Java.
 Good but not great!
I only wish the authors would have understood that it's better to write variables and declarations first and then use them later in the code. All the code examples are funnily written with the use of the variables first only to wonder from where they come from and later to realize that they're are at the end!!!!

br /Also author has tried to pack too much of details which can be halved.
br /Herbert schildt is a better option.
br /
br /But still the books is readable for beginners.
Why is the Kindle version so expensive?
I have an earlier version of this book and would love to get a Kindle version for reference. But... You save $3 by getting the digital version despite the fact that there is no shipping, storage, or printing costs?
br /
br /WTF?
br /
br /At $10 a piece I'd love to fill a Kindle with dozens of coding reference books that are filling up my library, but at $30+ a piece it's just not worth it.
