Review: I wish I'd read some of the other reviews posted here before buying the book. I even had many problems installing the CD-rom that came with the book; Arrrrrrrrghhhh..... I'm so annoyed... Please no one else buy this book. It's no good.

Summary: Not a good book
Review: In a Java course I took the instructor recommended this book. I think it is not a good reference book. It just lumps everything together and is void of good examples or explanations. If you are new to Java, DO NOT use this book!!!

Summary: Poor excuse for a programming book
Review: Much of the "coverage" consists of listings of properties and methods. Explanation and examples of how to use the information would be much more useful! In addition, the book is plagued with typos. This book is so bad it makes me hesitate to even consider a book from the same publisher.

Review: no question -- this is simply the *worst* technical book i've ever purchased. *LOADED* with errors -- to the point that i find myself reading solely to find and ridicule them. any simplistic concept is covered adnauseam with continual "cute" jokes/quips thrown in while anything not immediatly obvious is glossed over. simply incredible they could waste over 1000 pages saying essentially nothing. my first "bible" book. there won't be a second
