Customer Reviews & Comments
This review is from: Java, Java, Java: Object-Oriented Problem Solving (Paperback) Despite the other reviews, it's apparent others have not seen the learning light when they passed this book off as low rate. Critics who may brand this author with lengthy eloquence just don't want to know more than a nutshell of java. I am a web developer and a wanna be java programmer. In the last year I have looked at many a books, taken several intro courses from Sun, and others; they all have prepared me for where i am now, but I will have to say much of the journey has not been pleasurable learning. Many teach Java who are not well trained themselves. From the parts I have read in this book, it is an essential learning primer. Let me say, this book is pleasurable learning, from the couch to the Desktop. I recommend it to all levels of programmers. Even for just cognitive review...which we all need sometime in life.
