It does contain some goodies such as jar files, logging etc, but its discussion lacks depth and often difficult to understannd. I am curious why the book discusses newer (Java8+) ideas such as modules and JShell yet keeps using the deprecated GUI Swing

Best book on java hands down.

It’s the best out there hands down. It could’ve been a bit easier read, but it explains all the concepts, classes, libraries, lambdas as well as connections to the web, io and other applications. Good purchase.
