[Subhankar Sahu · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book takes a very practical approach to Java. Almost all chapters are written around examples. It is good, if you have some coding experience but really bad for noobs. Also, it is a really bad book for references, finding information about a particular method, from a particular class, from a particular packages is almost impossible.

Another great tome with excellent andragogy! I'm on page 215 of 1049 pages. Counting the 10 appendixes adds 75 pages. I'll update this "thought" when I finish.
