Good Java Overview

Advanced Techniques for Java Developers provides a good overivew of the newest Java technologies. Topics covered include JFC, Java Media, JavaBeans, EJB, RMI, JDBC, Servlets, Threads, Security, JNI, Network Computers and the Java OS. This breadth of topics gives the reader a good idea of where Java development is and what Java can do. The sections on JFC and 2-D/3-D media provided me with a needed update on the features...

A cut above the rest

There are thousands of books on Java and some are very good, for example ThinkinginJava, but this book is a cut above the rest in terms of how it explains the deep details of JVM and the Java design concepts, it also is amongst the first to discuss some very advanced java topics prior to any other. It is as if the javasoft developers wrote this book.

Pretty Good Book

is the first advanced Java 2 book I have seen on the market.

This book is a great FAQ of emerging Java technologies.

I read this book before a series of job interviews, and by relating to my already existing knowledge of Java, I was able to discuss with confidence some of the emerging technologies in Java.

Good book covering a big number of advanced technologies

I think it's a very good book for any developers who want to have a general knowledge (with some little examples) about the new advanced technologies. I'd really like to have some other technical books as clear and full as this one...Thanks...
