This book available in Online Reader form. I don't reccomend it. The viewer gets stuck, skips pages (requires restaring the browser) and even submitting a bug report generates a response from Amazon that "There is an error...".
Biggest problem with this book is the online reader lets you zoom in only 1 time which makes reading the example code impossible.

I have started learning programming about 6 months ago, reading several books. All the books have been on different programming languages at a beginners level.

I would totally suggest this book to anyone.
Great Book!!
