Rezensionen

From the book reviews:
"This book ... really hits the mark for a basic introduction to Java programming. ... This reviewer was very impressed with the organization of the topics and the incremental way that the presented concepts build upon each other. This is a very good resource for beginning Java programmers, and those who know any other programming language will find it a breeze to read. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Lower-division undergraduates, two-year technical program students, professionals/practitioners, and general readers." (F. H. Wild III, Choice, Vol. 52 (3), November, 2014)
