- Great book, really good way of teaching Java
This book is a really good 'hands on' way of teaching the Java programming language. Whilst other texts may start introducing concepts they often do so in a very bland fashion with chunks of paragraphs often tailored to the academic study of Java. This book however introduces and teaches the reader how to program in java, explaining the important concepts clearly and concisely and offers numerous practical exercises.

- Not for the self taught
this is an excelent book, but definately NOT FOR THOSE TEACHING THEMSELVES.

So, yes buy this book if ... Read More

- Excellent
If you are interested in OOP or a taster for Java this is the book. It has a university like learning approach which makes the whole learning experience both realitively easy and also interesting. Worth the money and the best book I have seen to date.

- Another satisfied customer - an Excellent Book
The idea behind this book is that although it uses Java as a way to teach object oriented programming, it's not focussed on the "Java" aspect, but the "OOOP". This means it provides a clear understanding of the underlying OOP principles, then uses Java programming to give examples - and there's many, many examples.

I particularly liked the fact the book provides a project - giving the reader something to do, then at the end gives a few other tasks. That way if you're really dedicated ... Read More
