The Virtual Bookcase Reviews of 'The Java Sourcebook':

Reviewer Rob Slade wrote:
There is little to recommend this addition to the flood of Java books. Those familiar with programming, particularly in C++, will be able to learn from this book as well as from any of the others. For the others, however, Anuff doesn't seem to feel any particular tutorial responsibility. One comment is quite illustrative. After a snippet of source code (almost pseudocode) that doesn't have much bearing on the topic under discussion, there are a couple of sentences that explain nothing not glaringly obvious to the rankest BASIC programmer. Anuff then gives up, and suggests that if you are still puzzled you review the earlier material. He doesn't even state which earlier material. Probably wise, since I doubt that any amount of rereading would clarify the situation. copyright Robert M. Slade, 1996
