1.0 out of 5 stars No style at all., June 23, 2000
This review is from: Java Manual of Style (Paperback)
The title "Manual of Style" implies that you will learn how to develop and structure your code. Instead you get 168 pages of utterly useless fluff. The cover boasts "over 15 examples", but fails to indicate that each example simply adds a few lines of code to the last one.

This would be a decent book for someone who knows absolutely nothing about Java, and wants to learn to add a useless applet to their web page. But if you intend to learn anything useful, skip this book. It would be best placed in the back of an airplane seat, or on the back of the toilet.

2.0 out of 5 stars Poor as a commentary, November 20, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Java Manual of Style (Paperback)
People buying this book maay be disappointed. The title implies a rigorous application of Java styles, but thiss does not happen. The book is puerile in the extreme and includes code that is inconsequential in the context of some-one that wants to learn the ssubject, or who wants to extend their technical vocabulary.

If you know nothing about nothing - buy it!! If you know the slightest amount - don't make the mistake thaat I did.

5.0 out of 5 stars excellent start for beginners, December 23, 1996
By A Customer
This review is from: Java Manual of Style (Paperback)
This book starts you programming in java from the start. It touches all of the basics and even sum of the foundation classes. I recommend this book to anyone beginning to learn java but doesn't know where to start. It offers great insight into the language of JAVA
