5.0 out of 5 stars Better than the Nutshell, November 6, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Java API For Dummies Quick Reference (Paperback)

I bought Java in a Nutshell, first, but found this reference more helpful. It contains the same list of classes, properties, and methods, but gives more tips and examples. It also has the "Lay-Flat" binding which should be required on all reference guides!!

This review is from: Java API For Dummies Quick Reference (Paperback)

I keep this book at my side 24/7. It is *the* indispensible guide to the core Java API. It's getting dated, what with Java 2, but it's still really useful. If these guys would publish "Java 2 API for Dummies Quick Reference", it'd fly off the stands. Come on, IDG, give us what we need!
