But, you know, I reckon that the books are overpriced. Most of them don't seem to hit the mark. I've found that there are many (MANY) web sites that freely offer Java information and tutorials. And, somehow, they seem to work better than books. Sure, you can't take one on a tram with you, but the whole Java concept includes a heavy emphasis on web integration. It just seems more natural to study Java online. Anyway, the following link will lead you to a very good book that can be downloaded in PDF or MS Word format, printed and read. But I strongly recommend that you check out the online tutorials, etc. http://www.EckelObjects.com You could also check out the usenet, but, to be frank, the signal to noise ratio on the Java ngs significantly reduces their value.
