Summary: The only book that made any sense
Comment: This is the first book that tied together the "Visual" tools (like Visual Basic, Visual RPG, etc.) with the Java language & Cafe. The UC Irvine instructor did not draw the parallel because he did not use Visual Basic, and did not like HTML -- the UCI instructor could not run a Cafe project! This book does it in step-by-step chapters with practical exercises. You finally see the connection between the "Visual" tools and the java code -- and it makes java easier to learn. So I like it. I just bought an upgrade to Visual Cafe (2.0 to 3.0 database) (Oracle Light), and I need a PC-to-AS400 tool. Cafe will be it. I use Visual Basic 6.0, Visual RPG, Visual J++ I am an RPG pgmr and thus have other paradigms to "overcome" in using OOP. This beats a college course if you don't mind reading.

Summary: Good for an introduction
Comment: I find that the book is good but only if u skip the first few chapters and head straight to where u start using the Java AWT classes. That was where i started rocking and rolling with Java, whereas i was still in a daze in the first few chapters. Good examples too. One note is to use the correct version of VCafe, I used the version 2.5 and there was no problem at all with the example codes. One grouse is the lack of client/server examples. Otherwise, this is a good buy.

Summary: Missing many details
Comment: This book seem to cover most of the topics about Visual Cafe 2.0,but most of the important details were left out. The author tried to attract the buyers with the fancy content and introduction.
