I purchased this book while taking the 2nd semester of a Intro to Object Oriented Programming Class at UNM. The main reason for the purchase is that the textbook for the class was inadequate to answer my questions as I studied for the course and I was looking for a good overall Java text to help cover the course material. I found an earlier version of this book in the library at UNM and liked what I saw so I purchased it from Amazon. Basically, this book does a great job covering just about all aspects of Java and is a great reference book for anyone learning about Java and Object Oriented Programming. It provides good examples as well, which a student really needs to help understand the concepts. My only criticism is that, because Java is such a rich language, a book this size (it's a large book!) cannot adequately cover the many different aspects with more than a few examples. Also, this is not meant to be a text book in the usual sense of the word in that there are no exercises and problems at the end of each chapter for the student to work through that would give added proficiency. Other than that I highly recommend this as a reference for anyone learning Java. Finally, I wish that people who write such books would put more comments ( ..//} in the example codes they use. Every text book I've looked at in Java seems to have this problem. I guess they do this because there is not a lot of room to add such comments but it sure would help.
