More About the Author

Joyce Farrell was formerly a Professor of Computer Information Systems at Harper College in Palatine, Illinois. Prior to joining Harper College, Farrell taught Computer Information Systems at the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point and McHenry County College in Crystal Lake, Illinois. She is the author of many Programming books for Course Technology, a part of Cengage Learning[1]. Her books are widely used as textbooks in higher education institutions.

"When I write my books I use the same language, examples, analogies, and entertaining exercises that made my class sessions fun and made the lessons stick. I was always thrilled when former students would return for a visit and tell me how they were able to solve problems at their new jobs when others were stumped because of the thorough programming backgrounds they got in my courses." -Joyce Farrell

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book for beginners, February 23, 2001

This review is from: Java Programming with Microsoft Visual J++ 6.0,with CD (Paperback)

I used this book in my college and really liked it. This book teaches java and microsoft visual j++ at the same time. This may not sound as a big deal but i think it is! why? most java programming books only teach the java programming language, and most visual j++ books only teach you the advance features of visual j++, but none teach how to use visual j++ to build simple java applications or appplets! no wonder so many people get frustrated with visual j++ because they dont know how to use it to for hte simplest tasks! this is where this book comes, and it really does a good job in it. i really liked the chapters wehre i learned about applets, graphics, multi-threading and animation, and windows applications and packaging. i would recommend this book to all beginners who want to learn java.
