1 Teach Yourself Java in 21 Days, 2nd ed., by Laura Lemay and Charles L. Perkins, Sams.net Publishing, is a "how-to" book at the intermediate programming level, greatly expanded from the original edition.
2 Java in a Nutshell, by David Flanagan, is the language reference book in the familiar O'Reilly series. The 2nd edition of this book is now out - it omits many examples from the first edition to make room for large section on JDK 1.1 - currently best book reference. Both 1st and 2nd edition are quite useful.
3 Java, How to Program, by Deitel and Deitel, Prentice-Hall, starts with beginning programming concepts and progresses rapidly through Java language. It has the most programming exercises and also has companion teaching multimedia books.
