From the Back Cover

Java by Example presumes no previous experience with either Java or programming in general. You will learn Java-specific programming concepts, object-oriented programming, and proper coding techniques. Topics include Java Foundation Classes (JFC), Abstract Windowing Toolkit, Applets vs Applications, and Multi-Threading. At the end of the book, you build a useful contact manager, applying concepts learned throughout the book.
