Praised by students and professional programmers, Eckel has thoroughly revised and updated his classic text for J2SE 5.0, the most enhanced version of the Java language since its inception.
I thank you and I\'m sure any programmers who will have to maintain my code are also grateful to you..
My code will be much better after reading Thinking in Java.
Thank you for the tremendous service that you are providing by writing such great books.
I look forward to reading more books written by you.
The exercises are also fantastic and do an excellent job reinforcing the ideas explained throughout the chapters.
Through your fantastic book I have gained a tremendous amount of Java knowledge. --Ravindra Pai, Oracle Corporation, SUNOS product line Bruce, your book is wonderful! Your explanations are clear and direct.
The best book ever written on Java.
This is one of the best books I\'ve read about a programming language....
Hawley, automation technician, Eli Lilly & Co. --Randall R.
Hopefully I will be able to attend your seminar in the not-too-distant future.
It\'s really cool to be able to understand the underlying principles and concepts from the start, rather than having to try to build that conceptual model through trial and error.
I was really floundering (being a non-C programmer), but your book has brought me up to speed as fast as I could read it. --Joakim Ziegler, FIX sysop Thank you again for your awesome book. --Anatoly Vorobey, Technion University, Haifa, Israel Absolutely one of the best programming tutorials I\'ve seen for any language.
IMHO, an ideal book for studying Java.
In contrast to many other Java books I found it to be unusually mature, consistent, intellectually honest, well-written, and precise.
Very complete, with excellent right-to-the-point examples and intelligent, not dumbed-down, explanations....
Make that \'by an order of magnitude\'.... --Jim Pleger, Loudoun County (Virginia) Government Much better than any other Java book I\'ve seen.
The exercises are challenging, and the chapter on Collections is superb! Not only did this book help me to pass the Sun Certified Java Programmer exam; it\'s also the first book I turn to whenever I have a Java question.
Thinking in Java should be read cover to cover by every Java programmer, then kept close at hand for frequent reference.
It is designed for teaching in a classroom and seminar session.
