4.0 out of 5 stars Finally a book with DECENT examples
Finally, a book with DECENT examples. While it isn't a book that will teach you everything there is to know about the theory of object orientated programming, it is THE book to learn how to write practical Java applications and applets.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing
This book was purchased because it was the required book for a second year computer science Java course. The book fails to cover even the simplest aspects of Java. Almost all my classmates purchased another book after discovering that this book did not fulfill their needs

An utter waste of money. I was thinking the creaters of Java would make the best authors of an introduction to Java. I was mistaken. Cool cover art, though

4.0 out of 5 stars reasonably good, January 2, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Java by Example (Java Series) (Paperback)
This is the first Java book I read from cover to cover. The book is fairly well laid out. The CD Rom contains useful examples, yet some some of the utilities were either out of date (Cafe) or did not install under NT. Makes a good companion to the Java in a Nutshell book (great reference guide).
