Humorous, practical and well-oriented
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
This book was the first one I ever read about programming. It launched a whole new world of logical and complex thinking that I could never have understood without the magnificent touch that the author gives us. He applies very simple examples to explain very complex matters about programming instances adding humor and intelligence... what else would you want? It's simply excellent. 110% recommended.
Great for Home Schooling Kids on Java 2
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
The book is a great primer for Java 2. Have been using it as a home schooling resource. The concepts are explained clearly, in a manner that teens from age 12 can easily grasp. The humor that peppers the text keeps them looking forward to daily sessions. Chapters and sections are sized so that you can take in a little or a lot at each reading. Coding examples helping to provide templates for your own programs. We added in some home-grown practice assignments and got teens who were writing programs in a manner of weeks and enjoying it. In addition, having an email address to send questions to and get quick turnaround responses is a great benefit for learning. Mr. Burd most obviously knows his stuff.

Turning bites into bytes
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
As a former dentist that is taking his first stab at programming I really needed a book that assumes the reader is a total dolt. Okay, maybe dolt is a little too strong - how about extreme novice. Barry Burd's "Java 2 for Dummies" fit the bill exactly. While other authors revel in high-handed semantics Dr. Burd's style and easy manner make for an enjoyable and beneficial learning experience I can recommend this book without hesitation.
Step-by-Step and Easy to Follow
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
For a few years now, I have wanted to learn how to program in JAVA. I bought books on JAVA but always hit road blocks along the way (because the author assumed I already knew something) that unmotivated me. In Java 2 for Dummies, Barry Burd has written a step-by-step book that could teach a near computer illiterate how to program in JAVA. He even includes directions to setting up the computer for convenience while programming. Explanations make the reader feel as though s/he is in a conversation with the author himself. I did not imagine that learning a programming language could be so easy.
