| Review |
This book is not for people unfamiliar with Java: in fact, there are many instances where a novice or intermediate might get very confused.
Also, the text and programming style are not very readable.
The concepts used are excellent, but would be best designed for someone experienced enough to wade through information that isn't particularly clear.
|
| Synopsis |
Comprehensive chapters covering encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism, type safety and constants, exceptions, callbacks, classes, objects, idioms, iterators, and more. Includes some example code and diagrams.
