I've been a professional programmer for over 10 years but my last two attempts at learning Java have been excercises in frustration. The whole procedural language to object oriented always seemed to be just out of my grasp. I've also spent a lot of money on other books with limited success, but this one pushed me over the edge to enlightenment (I HAVE become "one" with the compiler) due to its readablity and the basic examples. Way too many tutorial-type books bury the concept that they are trying to explain in a lot of extraneous code that tends to obfuscate their primary purpose: that of instructing the reader. This book shines in opposition to that practice, it gives the code needed to illustrate the concept that they are trying to get across and only add what is needed to complete the program for a successful compilation.
