Foil 58 Java Books -- III

From Introduction to Java to be used in (Scientific) Computing CEWES Java Tutorial -- Spring Semester 98. by Geoffrey C. Fox, Nancy McCracken


1 There are now many books in the Java Series from SunSoft Press, Prentice-Hall. Here are the first five:
  • instant Java, by John A. Pew, contains multimedia and animation applets for HTML authors. This is not a programming book.
  • Java by example, by Jerry R. Jackson and Alan L. McClellan, covers all key features with examples, but not as much detail about the language.
  • just Java, by Peter van der Linden, for intermediate programmers, gives good explanations of key features without going into detail.
  • core Java, by Gary Cornell and Cay S. Horstmann, offers detailed coverage of the language and packages for advanced programmers.
  • graphic Java, by Gary McClellan, gives more details on windowing and user interface and includes new classes (not in originial Java release) for such things as "rubberbanding".
