Summary: The illustrations alone make it worth it
Comment: I was impressed by the extensive use of illustrations, the full color layout, and the large type. Granted, the book's dimensions and weight make it impractical to carry around with you, but you can just set it up next to your computer desk and never need to move it. I also found the audio book, included on the third DVD, where Chris Laurel reads the entire book aloud, very helpful. I've copied it to my iPod and listen to it on my commute each morning and evening. All in all, this is one of the few real gems of my VRML library. It's only too bad the technology didn't exist at the time to publish the book as a fully immersed VRML experience. That's the only improvement I could suggest on this stunning masterpiece!

Summary: 3D Java is the sea and Chris Laurel is my moses.
Comment: Never before has a technical book actually made me weep tears. The sheer emotional impact of having 3D Java become so clear under Chris's brilliant authoring has forever changed my life for the better. I get misty eyed even writing this review. Although clearly written for someone with a bit of knowledge in the programming arts, that is no reason for anyone to shy away from it - be it novice to even non-computer literate person. I sent a copy of this book to every member of my family and I could see how it changed all their lives for the better. I can only hope someday I can bring the ideas presented here in 3D Java into my daily life and discover the happiness and peace Chris shows us is so close at hand.
