I have taken this book because I was interested in SCBCD 5.0. Many recommended this in JavaRanch.com.

Book is well organized. Reading from start to finish is what I feel is better.

Considering the number of silly and some major mistakes that took place in the book, I am of the opinion, they hurred the book printing.

I wish they had taken more care to eliminate the errors.

Especially for someone preparing for SCBCD 5.0, a mistake like incorrect Exception name for instance could mean a lot.
