Not for beginners

With over 15 years of programming experience and no experience with Java, I found this book difficult to follow. I normally like to dig right in with numerous examples so I can test what I have learned. This book has few meaningful examples and when they do exist, the author uses concepts which have not been covered yet. Confusing! After reading half the book I am now searching for a more beginner book.

okay but not for the novice

This guide to java programming was informative and thorough, however, i would not suggest it for a user of little or no prior java experience. Many of the explanations of java concepts I claim are difficult for the novice user to comprehende and I would recommend something a little more simpler.
