Solutions and Examples for Java Developers

On Sep 23, 2014 Marvin Lee wrote: Thoroughly surprised! A must read for Java programmers
For the first eight chapters, I have found the book to be pretty boring and basic for a start. I almost gave up on completing it but I was thoroughly surprised with Chapter 9 onwards.
Thirty percent or so of the earlier chapters are good for Java programmers who needed to know the very basic of Strings and Numbers. The rest of the chapters are very comprehensive for a programmer to know the advance stuff or the common enterprise usage of Java in server-side web applications. Full Review >

The book is a good reference to learn Android development, as a supplement to online references.
