Please ignore my review below

In the meantime, I've scrutinized the book more thoroughly. I've written the 1st review after comparing moslty the I/O and AWT chapters, the two being the worst of most Java books (and these two chapters are still as worse as they were in the 1998, Java 1.2 edition). As these chapters were similar to the previous edition, I thought the entire book is just a rehash too. However, other chapters are really updated, which I will also write about in the next review to be posted soon.Werner Zsolt.

Very good book. Exactly what the title says.

The index is throughly useless, but otherwise the book is great. I gave it five stars because, for once, the examples really helped. He gives you a practical example of just about everything you could expect from a book of this size. Its easy to read - plus, its organized so you can skip sections you're not interested in and then later go back. I'd really like to see more books like this out there.

Wide coverage

It is a book designed to take C and C++ programmers and turn them into Java programmers. Therefore, the book skips over a lot of the basic syntax that other learning Java books go through.Now, when you look at the book, you wonder why it is still so thick when so much material was skipped. The reason is that this book goes much deeper into Java than any other learning Java book I have seen. The book covers advanced topics like JavaBeans, RMI, Security, JDBC, references, package versioning, drap and drop, servlets, internationalization, COM, Media, and CORBA. Interestingly enough, some of the topics, like references, I have not yet seen covered in any other Java book at all.JavaScript is just covered in a couple of chapters at the end of the book. This section seems tacked on to me. However, one of the two chapters does cover integrating Java and JavaScript together, which could be useful for people working on web-based Java projects.If you are learning Java, already know C or C++, and want to only buy one book for learning purposes, this book might be the one for you since it will get you through the basics as well as much advanced material. Even experienced Java programmers may want to consider this book as it covers many new Java 2 topics that I haven't seen covered in another other book.
