Review

If you want to learn Java and have had any of the other books in this series, then this is a must for anyone. I started off with the Teach Yourself HTML book and I thought that was good, but this is even better. What makes it soooo good is the clear explanations and no hard words... The book has the building blocks and help so that you can make what you want out of the programs. Great Buy!! (Amazon.co.uk customer review )

4.0 out of 5 stars A good introduction to Java, 8 Sep 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Java (Teach Yourself) (Paperback)
I'd recommend this book to anyone who's starting out with Java. Chris explains O-O concepts and the basics of the language in just under 200 pages. The perfect partner for that rainy weekend. :)

Only one snag with the book. The accompanying website returns a deadlink. I guess the author has moved his account.
