## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Four Stars
            
*by M***L on 13 October 2015*

Good book
  

### ⭐⭐⭐ Not as good as others in the series.
            
*by J***L on 17 September 2006*

I bought this book after reading the excellent Python Programming for the Absolute Beginner from the same series.I have to say this book is not nearly as good.  For a start there are some factual errors in the first chapter, which does not install confidence.Although this book is for the 'Absolute Beginners', it does in places go too far. I am sure that someone who is considering taking up programming will know how to install a program in Windows, and I have no idea why two pages were dedicated to changing the colours of a Windows Command Prompt.In other areas explanations and concepts were lacking, Overall if you persevere with the book it does deliver a reasonable start with Java.
  

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Does exactly what it says on the tin
            
*by A***R on 1 October 2002*

This book is a fantastic book if you are learning Java from scratch, or even as supplementary reading for a Java course. The language is clear, and the author recognises difficult concepts to emphasise and support with examples. The software shipped with it is also good quality. I would reccomend this book to anyone who has had a bad experience with another Java book, as was in my case.
