This review is from: Core Packages (The Java(TM) Application Programming Interface, Volume 1) (Paperback)
I'm mad at our Java teacher for making us buy these recently instead of the far better and cheaper book Java Class Libaries: An Annotated Reference. These volumes have the worst info-lookup scheme imaginable. They are organized by package, not by class, yet the package is not shown in the heading -- only the class name is shown, and it's in the gutter rather than the outer edge. The only way to find anything in these books is to look it up in the index. These books will not be updated for Java 1.1; the series will build on Chan's book instead, fortunately.

This kind of book for serious programmers, gives a big help to people must develop WWW intranet solutions. The API reference is teached in the right way, and troubleshooting is easy to cross over. Java A.P.I. (Java Series) is the book for programmers who wants to become someone on the net!
