You have done a great job Your depth is amazing I will be purchasing the book when it is published I have been learning Java since October 96 I have read a few books, and consider yours a “MUST READ.” These past few months we have been focused on a product written entirely in Java Your book has helped solidify topics I was shaky on and has expanded my knowledge base I have even used some of your explanations as information in interviewing contractors to help our team I have found how much Java knowledge they have by asking them about things I have learned from reading your book (e.g., the difference between arrays and Vectors) Your book is great! Steve Wilkinson, Senior Staff Specialist, MCI Telecommunications Great book Best book on Java I have seen so far Jeff Sinclair, Software Engineer, Kestral Computing Thank you for Thinking in Java It’s time someone went beyond mere language description to a thoughtful, penetrating analytic tutorial that doesn’t kowtow to The Manufacturers I’ve read almost all the others— only yours and Patrick Winston’s have found a place in my heart I’m already recommending it to customers Thanks again Richard Brooks, Java Consultant, Sun Professional Services, Dallas Other books cover the WHAT of Java (describing the syntax and the libraries) or the HOW of Java (practical programming examples) Thinking in Java is the only book I know that explains the WHY of Java; why it was designed the way it was, why it works the way it does, why it sometimes doesn’t work, why it’s better than C++, why it’s not Although it also does a good job of teaching the what and how of the language, Thinking in Java is definitely the thinking person’s choice in a Java book Robert S Stephenson Thanks for writing a great book The more I read it the better I like it My students like it, too Chuck Iverson I just want to commend you for your work on Thinking in Java It is people like you that dignify the future of the Internet and I just want to thank you for your effort It is very much appreciated Patrick Barrell, Network Officer Mamco, QAF Mfg Inc Most of the Java books out there are fine for a start, and most just have beginning stuff and a lot of the same examples Yours is by far the best advanced thinking book I’ve seen Please publish it soon! I also bought Thinking in C++ just because I was so impressed with Thinking in Java George Laframboise, LightWorx Technology Consulting, Inc I wrote to you earlier about my favorable impressions regarding your Thinking in C++ (a book that stands prominently on my shelf here at work) And today I’ve been able to delve into Java with your e-book in my virtual hand, and I must say (in my best Chevy Chase from Modern Problems) “I like it!” Very informative and explanatory, without reading like a dry textbook You cover the most important yet the least covered concepts of Java development: the whys Sean Brady Your examples are clear and easy to understand You took care of many important details of Java that can’t be found easily in the weak Java documentation And you don’t waste the reader’s time with the basic facts a programmer already knows Kai Engert, Innovative Software, Germany I’m a great fan of your Thinking in C++ and have recommended it to associates As I go through the electronic version of your Java book, I’m finding that you’ve retained the same high level of writing Thank you! Peter R Neuwald VERY well-written Java book I think you’ve done a GREAT job on it As the leader of a Chicago-area Java special interest group, I’ve favorably mentioned your book and Web site several times at our recent meetings I would like to use Thinking in Java as the basis for a part of each monthly SIG meeting, in which we review and discuss each chapter in succession Mark Ertes I really appreciate your work and your book is good I recommend it here to our users and Ph.D students Hugues Leroy // Irisa-Inria Rennes France, Head of Scientific Computing and Industrial Tranfert OK, I’ve only read about 40 pages of Thinking in Java, but I’ve already found it to be the most clearly written and presented programming book I’ve come across and I’m a writer, myself, so I am probably a little critical I have Thinking in C++ on order and can’t wait to crack it—I’m fairly new to programming and am hitting learning curves head-on everywhere So this is just a quick note to say thanks for your excellent work I had begun to burn a little low on enthusiasm from slogging through the mucky, murky prose of most computer books—even ones that came with glowing recommendations I feel a whole lot better now Glenn Becker, Educational Theatre Association Thank you for making your wonderful book available I have found it immensely useful in finally understanding what I experienced as confusing in Java and C++ Reading your book has been very satisfying Felix Bizaoui, Twin Oaks Industries, Louisa, Va I must congratulate you on an excellent book I decided to have a look at Thinking in Java based on my experience with Thinking in C++, and I was not disappointed Jaco van der Merwe, Software Specialist, DataFusion Systems Ltd, Stellenbosch, South Africa This has to be one of the best Java books I’ve seen E.F Pritchard, Senior Software Engineer, Cambridge Animation Systems Ltd., United Kingdom Your book makes all the other Java books I’ve read or flipped through seem doubly useless and insulting Brett g Porter, Senior Programmer, Art & Logic I have been reading your book for a week or two and compared to the books I have read earlier on Java, your book seems to have given me a great start I have recommended this book to a lot of my friends and they have rated it excellent Please accept my congratulations for coming out with an excellent book Rama Krishna Bhupathi, Software Engineer, TCSI Corporation, San Jose Just wanted to say what a “brilliant” piece of work your book is I’ve been using it as a major reference for in-house Java work I find that the table of contents is just right for quickly locating the section that is required It’s also nice to see a book that is not just a rehash of the API nor treats the programmer like a dummy Grant Sayer, Java Components Group Leader, Ceedata Systems Pty Ltd, Australia Wow! A readable, in-depth Java book There are a lot of poor (and admittedly a couple of good) Java books out there, but from what I’ve seen yours is definitely one of the best John Root, Web Developer, Department of Social Security, London I’ve *just* started Thinking in Java I expect it to be very good because I really liked Thinking in C++ (which I read as an experienced C++ programmer, trying to stay ahead of the curve) I’m somewhat less experienced in Java, but expect to be very satisfied You are a wonderful author Kevin K Lewis, Technologist, ObjectSpace, Inc I think it’s a great book I learned all I know about Java from this book Thank you for making it available for free over the Internet If you wouldn’t have I’d know nothing about Java at all But the best thing is that your book isn’t a commercial brochure for Java It also shows the bad sides of Java YOU have done a great job here Frederik Fix, Belgium I have been hooked to your books all the time A couple of years ago, when I wanted to start with C++, it was C++ Inside & Out which took me around the fascinating world of C++ It helped me in getting better opportunities in life Now, in pursuit of more knowledge and when I wanted to learn Java, I bumped into Thinking in Java—no doubts in my mind as to whether I need some other book Just fantastic It is more like rediscovering myself as I get along with the book It is just a month since I started with Java, and heartfelt thanks to you, I am understanding it better now Anand Kumar S., Software Engineer, Computervision, India Your book stands out as an excellent general introduction Peter Robinson, University of Cambridge Computer Laboratory It’s by far the best material I have come across to help me learn Java and I just want you to know how lucky I feel to have found it THANKS! Chuck Peterson, Product Leader, Internet Product Line, IVIS International The book is great It’s the third book on Java I’ve started and I’m about two-thirds of the way through it now I plan to finish this one I found out about it because it is used in some internal classes at Lucent Technologies and a friend told me the book was on the Net Good work Jerry Nowlin, MTS, Lucent Technologies Of the six or so Java books I’ve accumulated to date, your Thinking in Java is by far the best and clearest Michael Van Waas, Ph.D., President, TMR Associates I just want to say thanks for Thinking in Java What a wonderful book you’ve made here! Not to mention downloadable for free! As a student I find your books invaluable (I have a copy of C++ Inside Out, another great book about C++), because they not only teach me the how-to, but also the whys, which are of course very important in building a strong foundation in languages such as C++ or Java I have quite a lot of friends here who love programming just as I do, and I’ve told them about your books They think it’s great! Thanks again! By the way, I’m Indonesian and I live in Java Ray Frederick Djajadinata, Student at Trisakti University, Jakarta The mere fact that you have made this work free over the Net puts me into shock I thought I’d let you know how much I appreciate and respect what you’re doing Shane LeBouthillier, Computer Engineering student, University of Alberta, Canada I have to tell you how much I look forward to reading your monthly column As a newbie to the world of object oriented programming, I appreciate the time and thoughtfulness that you give to even the most elementary topic I have downloaded your book, but you can bet that I will purchase the hard copy when it is published Thanks for all of your help Dan Cashmer, B C Ziegler & Co Just want to congratulate you on a job well done First I stumbled upon the PDF version of Thinking in Java Even before I finished reading it, I ran to the store and found Thinking in C++ Now, I have been in the computer business for over eight years, as a consultant, software engineer, teacher/trainer, and recently as self-employed, so I’d like to think that I have seen enough (not “have seen it all,” mind you, but enough) However, these books cause my girlfriend to call me a ”geek.” Not that I have anything against the concept—it is just that I thought this phase was well beyond me But I find myself truly enjoying both books, like no other computer book I have touched or bought so far Excellent writing style, very nice introduction of every new topic, and lots of wisdom in the books Well done Simon Goland, simonsez@smartt.com, Simon Says Consulting, Inc I must say that your Thinking in Java is great! That is exactly the kind of documentation I was looking for Especially the sections about good and poor software design using Java Dirk Duehr, Lexikon Verlag, Bertelsmann AG, Germany Thank you for writing two great books (Thinking in C++, Thinking in Java) You have helped me immensely in my progression to object oriented programming Donald Lawson, DCL Enterprises Thank you for taking the time to write a really helpful book on Java If teaching makes you understand something, by now you must be pretty pleased with yourself Dominic Turner, GEAC Support It’s the best Java book I have ever read—and I read some Jean-Yves MENGANT, Chief Software Architect NAT-SYSTEM, Paris, France Thinking in Java gives the best coverage and explanation Very easy to read, and I mean the code fragments as well Ron Chan, Ph.D., Expert Choice, Inc., Pittsburgh PA Your book is great I have read lots of programming books and your book still adds insights to programming in my mind Ningjian Wang, Information System Engineer, The Vanguard Group Thinking in Java is an excellent and readable book I recommend it to all my students Dr Paul Gorman, Department of Computer Science, University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand You make it possible for the proverbial free lunch to exist, not just a soup kitchen type of lunch but a gourmet delight for those who appreciate good software and books about it Jose Suriol, Scylax Corporation Thanks for the opportunity of watching this book grow into a masterpiece! IT IS THE BEST book on the subject that I’ve read or browsed Jeff Lapchinsky, Programmer, Net Results Technologies Your book is concise, accessible and a joy to read Keith Ritchie, Java Research & Development Team, KL Group Inc It truly is the best book I’ve read on Java! Daniel Eng The best book I have seen on Java! Rich Hoffarth, Senior Architect, West Group Thank you for a wonderful book I’m having a lot of fun going through the chapters Fred Trimble, Actium Corporation You have mastered the art of slowly and successfully making us grasp the details You make learning VERY easy and satisfying Thank you for a truly wonderful tutorial Rajesh Rau, Software Consultant Thinking in Java rocks the free world! Miko O’Sullivan, President, Idocs Inc About Thinking in C++: Best Book! Winner of the 1995 Software Development Magazine Jolt Award! “This book is a tremendous achievement You owe it to yourself to have a copy on your shelf The chapter on iostreams is the most comprehensive and understandable treatment of that subject I’ve seen to date.” Al Stevens Contributing Editor, Doctor Dobbs Journal “Eckel’s book is the only one to so clearly explain how to rethink program construction for object orientation That the book is also an excellent tutorial on the ins and outs of C++ is an added bonus.” Andrew Binstock Editor, Unix Review “Bruce continues to amaze me with his insight into C++, and Thinking in C++ is his best collection of ideas yet If you want clear answers to difficult questions about C++, buy this outstanding book.” Gary Entsminger Author, The Tao of Objects “Thinking in C++ patiently and methodically explores the issues of when and how to use inlines, references, operator overloading, inheritance, and dynamic objects, as well as advanced topics such as the proper use of templates, exceptions and multiple inheritance The entire effort is woven in a fabric that includes Eckel’s own philosophy of object and program design A must for every C++ developer’s bookshelf, Thinking in C++ is the one C++ book you must have if you’re doing serious development with C++.” Richard Hale Shaw Contributing Editor, PC Magazine 1052;
