Rating:  - Thinking in Java, 4th edition
This is a beginner addressed book on Java: if you are already skilled in programming with procedural or even OO language, you'll find this book very useful.
The text is very simple and clear, the examples are incisive and at the end of each chapter you'll find a couple of exercises that can be very useful to focus the concepts.
A "thinking in enterprise java" would be a great successor to this good book.
5 stars!
Rating: - Comprehesive Java Tutorial
Thinking in Java is a quite comprehensive book for intermediate to advanced level for Java programmers. Each chapter can be read individually in order to learn inner details of Java 5/6 language. This is not a book for a new comer to Java language.
Rating:  - A Bit Disappointed
Much of the code in the book is predicated on you using some of his custom libraries. As a result, you learn things his way, not necessarily the standard way to code Java.
Rating: - The Java Bible with Design Patterns
I really liked this book, its a complete one. I used it to study for the SCJP 5.0 Exam as a complement to the Kathys book. Its however not a beginners book. You have to have some programming background cause its very theorical book. It explains in depth every subject, and its it drawback too, it gets a little boring with so much explanation, and in some examples it focuses more on the Design Patterns than Java. This is the Java Bible,every thing you will need is inside.
Rating: - Become a Java guru
I have been a Java developer for 7 years, and my knowledge of Java increased by double, if not more, after reading this book. This book is fantastic to get deep into general Java topics. No kidding, I learned enough that I was able to point out features in Java that even our "gurus" at work did not know. Now I am one of the gurus! Note that the book covers no J2EE and is only an intro to concurrency so suppliment with books specific to those topics if you need.
