I am final year student of B.Tech CSE. I have programming experience in C# .Net 3.5 , C and C . Further, I kind of had feeling that I should resign from .Net and choose Java. So, after a lot R&D on Google and some other tech forums I chose Head First Java. And all I can say now is that it's simply awesome for newbies in Java. One can never find it boring. Once u have came past 1st chapter it will generate curiosity and u will keep moving on. I finished this book in mere 15-20 days and now I ...

Today I received this book.whenever's I opened this book the way of explanation of this book is good .this book totally explained by picture format.it's easy to understand every concept in java....

WHAT A BOOK! FABULOUS BOOK ...NOT NOT NOT...FABULOUS FRIEND FOR ME... 😊😊😊📕📒📓👍📔📒📑...

Very Helpful... Especially for beginners, non cs students and for those who struggle to understand the java concepts... All my life I thought java is the toughest subject that a person like me can never learn it but trust me this book is just awesome. Once you read it you can never say that you didn't understand a single topic on java which is covered in this book. I'm in love with this book ❤

In my last career job that I left about 20 years ago we were programming in DOS world using C & Assembly. Since then I spent years teaching computers to children of all ages. I had a longstanding desire to be able to bring myself up to speed in today's PC environments. My 1st book in Python was too overwhelming. I read the reviews here and thought to try this book. I can tell you that it has made OOPS funda a lot more clear for me. Went through about 150 pages of it like I was reading a novel...

This is an extremely good book for anybody who wants to begin their learning on Java.
Pros:
1. Fluid style
2. Clever illustrations
3. Interesting problems
4. Unconventional coding (no programming involving printing the sum of two numbers)
5. You'd probably learn something out of this and still be called cool.

Cons:
Since it is a beginner's book, there are some limitations regarding the amount of learning you would like to have. There is only one con: Less detailed chapters on Autoboxing, Swi...

This is perhaps the best book for beginners who want to learn Java basics. It pictorially explains the technical concepts in non-technical, which beginners will find very hard to understand otherwise. Even most of the teachers won't be able to explain the concepts better than this book can. Reading the initial pages of the book, you can find how much research has been put into developing this sort of teaching methodology. Being myself a lecturer, I do recommended this book, especially for th...

I am so impressed by the book that I had recommended it to my sister, nay bought one and delivered to her. After purchasing a copy I was appalled at the quality of production. Later on second thoughts I bought a copy for myself, even after buying Java: The complete Reference by Herb Schildt my favorite author. I always like to choose portmanteau books so.
Having bought HFJ by Sierra and Bates, I felt here are the real pedagogues. I messaged my sister( a banking professional) saying "Read thi...

I have read several java books. Most are complicated and a bit tedious. This book though is really fun to read. It makes u smile, with lots of fun comments and programs you would like to try and modify. Great book for beginners but it starts fast as well unlike other beginner books.

book is just awesome
