Excellent introduction to OOP and Java

This is one of the best books there is on object oriented programming and Java. I used this book as reference on a Java training course I recently thaught to Cobol programmers. Although this book is not aimed to professional programming, the contents, structure and presentation style makes it a good choice as reference book for introductory Java and OOP courses aimed at professional programmers with no or little experience in object oriented technology and Java.As a matter of fact, this book is a lot better for this purpose than "Java for Cobol Programmers" (ISBN: 1886801843) and "Java for the Cobol Programmer" (ISBN: 0521658926).I strongly recommend this book for both non-programmers and programmers of structured languages.
