5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent from beginning to end, 12 Aug 2003
I got this book to learn Java, having done C++ before. You come away from each chapter understanding what has been explained, and can map that to real world applications. The book would be ideal for someone who has not done any object oriented programming before, or someone who has in another language.
Theres lots of well written examples, and all the way through there are "good programming practice", "Error prevention tip" and "Common Programming error" notes scattered in which are really useful.
Each of the first 9 or so chapters has a section at the end "Thinking about objects" in which they slowly present the way to analyse a problem into objects, and design the program around it. My only complaint, and it's not really a complaint, just an observation, is that this problem is far from a real world problem. However, it is easy to map the methods they describe to real world situation, as it is explained HOW to do it, rather than WHAT to do.

Overall, if you're new to Java, don't hesitate.

4.0 out of 5 stars V. Good into to java on the whole, 8 Nov 2003
By A Customer
This book covers pretty much every little corner of the tasks Java gets used, and does it well. One slight grumble is that the code examples tend to be swamped by Swing code, which can detract from the actual subject matter of the chapter. I know most Java apps use GUIs, but when all you are trying to do is show how to set up a stream from a text file, having the example code stretch to 3 pages, for the sake of having a nice interface seems slightly O.T.T. Great book on the whole though!

4.0 out of 5 stars A very impressive textbook, 23 Mar 2003
By Thomas Paul (Plainview, NY USA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Java How to Program (Paperback)
Once again, Deitel has published a very impressive book. This new edition has been updated for Java 1.4 with, among other topics, coverage of regular expression and NIO. In addition, chapters on JDBC, Servlets, and JSP have been added. The chapter on object oriented programming and polymorphism has been rewritten and expanded into two chapters. The book has been cleaned up with redundancy removed in order to keep it around 1500 pages. Overall, the book is as complete as you would want in an introduction to Java. The book covers virtually everything in J2SE, gives a good primer on object oriented programming, covers design patterns and UML, and even gives an introduction to server side development. There's enough information in this book for at least two semesters of Java. All this information can be overwhelming but the authors use extensive, well commented color coded program samples to explain each topic. It is almost impossible to turn a page and not find either code samples or a diagram. In addition, there is a natural flow from topic to topic. This book was written as a college textbook and it has a college textbook "feel". Each chapter has well thought out exercises but the solutions must be purchased separately. A lab manual for this book is also available (release date, July 1, 2003). If you are planning on teaching a Java course and you are looking for a textbook this is book would make a good choice.
