Hi Kathy & Bert,

Your books are really helpful in all terms. To clear basic fundamentals, learn new concepts and obviously, to get thru from Exam as well.

One small request, it would be better to release such book well advance to match the time line of next release of JAVA/JDK.

Anyway, you are greatly helping the entire java developers and community.

Thanks...

Hi Kathy & Bert,

I've read the books since 1.4, they are really great!
They helped me to use Java in a much better way and to see the beauty of the concepts behind the language.
Congratulations and best regards!
