Its Complete, Really.
When I had to quickly deliver a prototype in Java (I was a C/C++ programmer then), this book came to my help and ever since, it became a bible for me. A complete book to get introduction to in-depth information about Java. The language is simple, the style is good and the approach is fantastic. Since the authors come from both the backgrounds, the treatment is very different. I would strongly recommend to anyone who wants dive into Java. (I should say special thanks to my colleague who suggested this book).
Haven't found a better one yet.
. I've got more than a dozen JAVA tutorial and reference books from a wide variety of authors, but when I'm really stuck .. this is the one I reach for. As a matter of fact, all the best programming reference books on my shelf are Schildt's.
This book would've got an 9 but I only rated it a 6
This book is pack with great example and thing you would not find in alot of book. Hello, I am Johnathan Mark Smith from the Staten Island Java Group and I think this book would've been a 9 but I rated it a 6. The only thing is that it is base on jdk 1. 0. 2 and not JDK 1. 1.
