5.0 out of 5 stars Out-dated but excellent, March 14, 1999

This review is from: 1001 Java Programmer's Tips (with CD-rom) (Paperback)

A very good book explaining Java 1.0 in detail. The learn by tips approach is excellent. Unfortunately this book covers version 1.0 and many of the features have been deprecated as of version 1.2. Still , this remains an excellent book.
