Summary: Excellent Book!!!
Comment: I am a tech architect in web content management consultancy business. Many data structures and data manipulation algorithms need to be employed in a professional manner in web content management and deployment. I have read many web related Java books released so far and closely looked at most of them. But there wasn't any other book on Java Collections as John's book.
This book explains Java collections and their uses in-depth. The concepts are clearly explained and examples are easy to follow. The book is definitely good for beginners to experienced architects. Besides showing off the built-in algorithms available for manipulating collections, the books also gives tips on defining custom collection classes. The discussion and tips on the interactions between collections and threading are very useful for developing codes with thread-safe collections.
This is a great book! I would definitely suggest you get this book if you need to deal with data structure and manipulation, and JSP page development.

Summary: Everything you ever wanted to know about Java Collections...
Comment: Everything you ever wanted to know about Java Collections...including some things that you probably didn't want to know!!!
This is an excellent book and coverage of this important topic is long overdue.
I really like the detailed method by method explainations and I also like the attention to the subtle detail provided to call out semantic differences between often very similar classes/interfaces. The best examples in the book (in my opinion), are the PriorityQueue and the Multimap since they are real-world collections that I would be able to use immediately. I thought the diagrams in the book were extremely well done. The use of UML was a great choice...I was able to read and understand the relationships between classes and interfaces without having to learn "yet-another-object-modeling-language".
I read the book front-to-back, but I'm not sure that you will need to...The sections on each collection interface and implementation form a great reference...I will likely re-read individual chapters the next time I need to use one of the collection classes.
Don't skip over Part I (Historical Collection Classes), I've been working with Java for years and I still learned something about arrays!
All and all, it is money well spent if you want detailed information on the Collections support in the Java language.

Summary: John Zukowski knows Collections
Comment: ...This book is like having John sitting next to you explaining what collections are and how to use them to your advantage. This book covers collections like no other book I have read so far. Even a Java beginner can use this book. Most Java books rely on the old formula that a Java beginner is a programming beginner and to that extent write tiring convoluted explanations about Java topics. John is not that kind of writer. He dives straight to the point and avoids nonsense examples. His examples are short and very powerful. John Zukowski is for Java as Tom Swan was for C++. His books are now my most prized possessions in my Java books collection.
Hats off to John...
