Rating: - I am very satisfied with this book
I am very satisfied with this Java(TM) Programming Language, The (4th Edition) (The Java Series) book because it includes all necesary information to learn about the language and make exercises, It is great for me and I recomend it very much.
Rating: - If you're comfortable with programming ..

Rating: - What a book!
I thought I have fine Java knowledge, actually I already knew most stuff in this book exception some new things from Java 5. But the way these authors present Java language in such a simple, clean way make me felt I was overconfident about my Java knowledge. I believe this book benefits more for experienced Java programmer than newbie. It's terrific for beginners too, save you lots of fluff.
