 Quick Buck Book doesn't deliver February 26, 2000
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I was extrememly disappointed with this book. It promised "Industrial Strength" advice but was a poorly written, confusing exposition of the author's inability to create an intelligent technical book. The book contained many typos and misleading references. The CD had to be cleaned before it was usable; and it did not contain all the code shown in the book. The book is clearly a hastily put together device with an eye-catching title that didn't deliver. It irks me to know the author probably made money. He should personally apologize to all his customers.
 Frustrating..... July 23, 1999

An industrial-strength table of contents! Inside - fails to deliver.Heaps of missing code, typos. Some good information warrants the 2 stars.
Misleading strength series. March 18, 1999
By the looks of the Table of Contents the book should be perfect. I also had a chance to browse it quickly in a bookstore and it look to be alright. When I looked it up for those topics I needed the truth came up. It does not explain matters. How could I be such a fool! Next time I will be very careful about those "Industrial Strengths" and the likes ... and probably about the publisher too.
BEWARE: Confusing even for an experienced programmer. March 18, 1999

Despite my knowledge in C++ and experience in several programming languages, I could not quite understand the explanations of this book. This impression is enforced by the fact that I have read some Java books and the Javasoft on-line tutorial. The examples employed in the explanations are awfully rushed in (as the case of the Flying Pig in explanation about interface). This book appears that it has been written by rushed contributors. It lacks in consistency and has lots of spelling errors. The listings are so short and split across the text that I can hardly have picture of the overall text/discussion. Such a book may compromise the image of the publisher.
 That depends... August 22, 1998
if you are an experienced C++ programmer who want to pick up EVERY aspect of Java very quickly, this is perfect book that you can go over in 10 days. Some of the chapters are really good and easy to read. But if you expect to learn all decent tricks(I don't think you can expect this from any SINGLE BOOK), buy "Core Java" or "Java examples in a Nutshell" with "Maximum Java".
