put Java to work on real projects.
Fully updated throughout for the new Java 6 platform, this no-nonsense tutorial

crafted for simplicity, but they aren't fake, and they never cut corners --
so you can rely on them as an outstanding starting point for your own code.
Volume I is designed to quickly bring
you up-to-speed on what's new in Java SE6 and to help you make the transition

programming. You'll find detailed, insightful coverage of:
- Object-oriented programming
- Reflection and proxies
- Interfaces and inner classes
- The event listener model
- Graphical user interface design with the Swing UI toolkit
- Exception handling
- Generic programming
- The collections framework
- Concurrency
- Synchronization and multithreading coverage
For even more real-world insights into Java 6 enterprise features and advanced
user interface programming, look for the forthcoming new edition of Core
Java Volume II -- Advanced Features.
