It's not easy to say. For example, Richard Monson-Haefel says in his blog on java.net:
"... You don't have to be
rocket scientist to appreciate the book or understand it. If you have basic
Java skills the book will be a little challenging but not too bad. If you have intermediate to advanced Java skills, you'll have no problem at all and you will probably learn a lot. ..."
When writing a chapter, Paul and I have tried to explain all relevant topics prior to developing a given module for that chapter. However, best is to download the 6 chapters from
www.brainysoftware.com and see for yourself.
