SynopsisJava is a programming language for the Internet. It is a derivative of C/C++. Written from a real-world programmer perspective with insider details from two Java programmers, this text explains the design motivation of the language as well as the trade-offs involved in using specific features. The book contains practical examples concerning Java's constructs, libraries and language details.
