Good book, lots of concise info, but designed for those who already have a fair idea of what they're doing and just need a quick lookup of some syntax/parameter. The last section on UML* is handy too.

This book won't tell you how to write complete programs, but it will tell you how to best use each component that goes into creating complete programs, from how much memory an int needs, to the most efficient way of reading and writing data to/from a file. When you're writing Java, this is the book you want next to your keyboard. It just gets to the point, straight forward and simple.
