Features UML (Unified Modeling Language) notation is used from Chapter 9 on in program development examples when students are adequately prepared to use it. JAVA specific topics (e.g. exceptions graphical user interfaces graphics threads applets) are presented in optional stand alone appendixes at the back of the book. Instructors can present these topics when they best serve course objectives. Quick Look At sections build students awareness and understanding of the core fields of computer science (including graphics A1 and databases). The style is readable and suitable for our students. There is a good balance between programming and Java specific instruction. The exercises are numerous and are presented at the end of each major section. This is better than having a big pile of them at the end of the chapter. Students need to think of more than the nuts and bolts of writing programs in the course. 1138 pp.
