Three semesters of this book will alter your brain! Gaddis and Dr. Muganda, the brother who is important beyond what's evident in their subsequent titles, have created a cookbook for Java. If this doesn't teach you anything, you're not going to learn it. The professor used it for part 1 and part 2. The problem is - I failed part 1, so had to take it twice! But I bet you what - I know this shxxx now!

solid examples and explanations, not much fuss at all.

This was course material for Programming Java, via University of Dalarna, Sweden.

Read the first half for a comp sci 101 course this summer. It really is a great textbook, not much else to say. Web delivery through VitalSource is the new gold standard.

This is a really brilliantly constructed textbook. Super easy to follow and full of great examples, review questions and reminders. A glossary of terms would have been nice.

The book was a good read and helped me learn what I needed to know as far java is concerned. I would recommend this book to a friend.
