Excellent
For example, how to fix the first two columns of a JTable while the other columns can scroll. This book has two huge chapters on JTable and JTree with lots of examples which I found very useful. Excellent coverage of Events as well. Great book and good examples.
Good Treatment, But not up to J2SE 1.4 Version
4 for AWT, Swing, etc, even though it was published in the year of 2002. The good news is this book has a fairly detailed cover of JFC! However the bad news is it doesn't cover new features and enhancements in J2SE 1. That means many of classes, interfaces, methods, constants, and codes mentioned in the book are obsoleted or deprecated now, not mentioned to the other new changes in JDK 1. 4. I believe that the author has struggled to keep up with the current update too, as well as readers.
Excellent
It's clear and smart. I found it excellent. He points to the point giving even example on how to provide backward compatibility or how to re-arrange your code to use newest sdk. I would suggest it to every body already know java and would improve his/her knowledge.
