Customer Reviews

Great Java Book for All Levels!!

Took a Java class awhile back and purchased this book. Turns out I recently had a need to brush up on Java for work. Thankfully, this book really came through to teach & refresh me the fundamentals as well as the details other books just glossed over (I was flipping furiously through 2 other Java books until Gittleman's book had the answers!). Needless to say, I can't rave enough about this book. Not sure what the other two reviewers were talking about ranking this book as low as they did. Yes, there are a FEW typos, but lets focus here on content. 5 out of 5! Go Beach! Happy Valentine's Day!

Excellent JAVA text

Looking for a book to teach with? Looking for a book that discusses data structures, JDBC, Algorithm design, pretty much everything? This is the book for you. I was looking for a text for new classes I am teaching in Java and this one fit the bill. Buy it!

"best book I have seen so far in Java books"

"Dear Mr. Gittleman: Congratulations for publishing a wonderful textbook of "Computing with JAVA: Programs, Objects, Graphics". ISBN: 1-57676-023-5 It is the best book I have seen so far in Java books: I like your sense of humor, interesting examples, assorted end of chapter problems, non-threatening, and easy to follow book. Best wishes, Theresa Park, Instructor Computer Science Department Texas State Technical College

It covers almost everything you need to know about Java

I absolutely love this book!!! As a student of computer science, I found the book invaluable in learning Java on my own. It is easy to read, it fully explains diffucult concepts and the examples are detailed. The skill-builder and critical thinking sections are a great way to evalutate and reinforce your knowledge on the various concepts that are introduced. I would whole-heartedly reccommend this book to anyone who needs a good practical knowledge of Java.
