Summary: Excellent "Get Started" Guide
Comment: This book does a great job for the first time Java programmer. It's easy to read, Smith has a sense of humor, and she's squeezed in about as much detail as possible while still keeping the book readable in a few sittings. Beware she covers only Java 1.0 and this book is NOT a comprehensive reference but neither should be a problem if your goal is to learn the language from scratch. Smith makes a good argument for sticking to 1.0 for the time being. The book is particularly well suited to HTML programmers looking to use Java applets on their pages. It's also reasonably priced and doesn't resemble a phone book in either size or style--both refreshingly unusual in this genre.

Summary: This book needs more
Comment: This is an okay book for those who are beginners in the Java language. I wouldn't recommend this book because there not much meat in the text. Even if you have never programmed before, this book just doesn't give much to work with. The book mostly focuses on simple code and java background, not really useful for more than just getting your feet wet. I would suggest another book that has more complex and useful java code.

Summary: A waste of money
Comment: This book is a aimed at the terminally retarded. The simplicity of this book is beyond belief. The worst part is that in an effort to be ultra-simple, the author is just flat wrong. Anyone who can't explain the difference between a class and an object should not be allowed to write a book on java. This book is a total waste of money
