Hello friends, I want to recommend the most useful books that i followed and liked books regarding java... The two books are: 1. Thinking in Java - It is best for beginner. It will explain from the very beginning concepts. After this, u may follow.... 2. (OSBORNE) The Complete Reference Java 2 - 5th edition. These are the two best books for Java in my view.... Have a nice day, keep smilling & BYE .............

You should take a visit to the library, they have quite a assortment of books of that nature. But something that i would recommend to you is on the internet. It's reliable and it is free of use. Visit www.w3schools.com They have have the information, quizes - to quiz yourself, and tests - to test yourself. Also they have some neat things so that you can actually try out some of the scripts that they use in the lessons... they are called 'demos'. Anyways, I highly recommend that site for learning.

I'm a Java/J2EE programmer working for a software firm. I learn't java from Java:Complete Reference - Herbert Schildt. I think its the best book for beginners. It teaches you the basics as well as the advance concepts of Java using good illustrations. It also helps those who wish to migrate from C++ to Java.
