- This book teaches the core Java skills that you need to work with objects, graphical user interfaces (GUIs), files, and databases.
- It gives you a fast start! In fact, by the end of chapter 6, you'll be developing bulletproof Java applications with business classes and objects.
- It now shows you how to use the NetBeans IDE to code, test, and debug Java applications. This easy-to-use tool boosts your productivity and is widely used in industry. So you'll be working like a pro right from the start.
- It takes the mystery out of object-oriented programming by using real-world applications (instead of objects like cats and dogs) to demonstrate key concepts like inheritance, interfaces, and polymorphism.
- It covers the best new features of Java SE 7, like the try-with-resources statement, the diamond operator (<>), and a new and improved file system API (known as NIO2).
- In the GUI section, it shows you how to use the NetBeans GUI builder to design a form and generate the code needed to display it. As a result, this section has you focus on critical coding skills, such as handling events, instead of on code that should be generated.
- Because business applications routinely handle data, it shows how to work with text files, binary files, XML files, and databases (using JDBC).
- It now has a chapter on deploying applications by using executable JAR files or Java Web Start.
- All the skills are presented in our standard, "paired-pages" format, to save you time on both training and reference.

Developers often tell me they wish they'd found our Java book first, before spending time and money on others. Here are a few of the reasons why I believe this book will work equally well for you:
