A great disappointment
Honestly, this is one of the worst books I ever bought. Since I has already been programming with Java, but not with Applets, I was told to for a new project. I got the book cheap in an auction, but finally it wasn't the schnappchen I had hoped. This book is somehow about the web, somehow about Java, somehow about browsers, somehow about search engines. It is not about applet programming. 40 pages out of 370 cover only the very very basics and did not even reach the deepness of SUN's tutorial. I gave it away to a school student learning Java but he brougth it back.

Do not waste your money!
Absolutely empty book. I even have nothing to say about it. I would rate it 0 stars if it were in option. Links point primarily on JavaSoft.com and Netscape.com. To make this review not so empty as the book is, I would recommend `Just Java 1.2` by Piter Van Der Linden. Best for beginners, intermediate level, C++ & Delphi programmers.

Very lightweght. Good for beginning
Probably only `Dummy` series could be simplier Very easy code examples, however you won't be able to use this code in your proj-s - it's for demo only.

Bad book
I got a book, Java for Dummies, and then thought i needed a book on Java PROGRAMMING. I was right, but this was the WRONG book. It put me to sleep, didn't cover anything that well, and in the 2nd chapter, it showed a 12 page Java code! it said `you won't be doing this, but this is REAL java code` i just really thought the stupid book wasn't worth the money i invested
