This page lists and comments on interesting
Java books, Internet sites, and so on.
Early on
in my Java career I read "Java in a Nutshell"
by
David Flanagan (published by O'Reilly and Associates: http://www.oreilly.com)
ISBN 1-56592-262-X. As with many of this series,
this is really more of a
reference book than a tutorial. I found it particularly
good for a C/C++ programmer as the first fifty pages or so
cover in detail the differences.
There are book reviews for this and other Java
books at http://www.amazon.com.
I bought the second edition (for Java 1.1). The book is now onto a
third edition, for Java 1.2.
Java 1.2 covers so much more than Java 1.1 that some subjects have
been split into companion volumes.
Here is a list of Java Web sites I found useful:
