This is a good high level look at the new features in Java 6. The page count is low enough at 220 to read through from beginning to end and get a good feel for what is new. This is not a deep bible type book though. You will need other references or dig in code experiments yourself. The JDBC 4.0 material for example is only 11 pages. The low page count is made that much the odder by the inclusion of some truly useless material: each chapter starts with two tables detailing the differences in number of classes, interfaces, enums, etc between Java 5 and 6. Really? Who cares that there was 8 interfaces in lang 5.0 and... 8 interfaces in lang 6.0? Still, this book should be read by developers wanting to take advantage of what Java 6 has to offer.
