Summary: Nice book
Review: The Java Jumpstart is a excellent help book. It could help beginner's, medium and advanced programmer. Each step is well explain in detail and a beginner get how to compile, build, pass main params. After reading this book they will be ready to read a UML chart and transpose it in java. For advanced programmer it's a good reminder of how to well organize a program. The book explain how to use bitwise, some design pattern, interface, abstract class. Most of the common command are well explain. With this book you go directly to what you need. There is no talking for nothing.

Summary: Refreshing change from encyclopedic Java tomes
Review: This slim guidebook is a refreshing change to the conventional Java tomes. It covers the Java syntax, clearly and concisely, assuming a computer science or programming background, understanding the concepts behind EBNF, scope, casting and UML is beneficial but not required. The standard libraries, covered in such great detail by the more encyclopedic Java books is covered in about 5 pages (but several key classes are introduced elsewhere), which is no great loss considering the comprehensive Javadocs on the web and the many narrowly focused tutorials on the web. Coverage of the core Java language is impressive, including things such as details of overriding the automatic invocation of superclass methods.Closer to K&R's "The C Programming Language" than the many "Java for stupid people" type books, this book is ideal for programmers migrating from languages such as C and C++ to Java.
