The cat is out of the bag…

 Tiger––aka Java Version 5.0––is one of the most exciting developments in the Java language, and it’s now integrated throughout this new Second Edition of Cay Horstmann’s Big Java! This one comprehensive and authoritative guide will help you learn computing concepts and programming principles, develop strong problem-solving skills, and become a better programmer, while exploring the elements of Java that are needed to write real-life programs.

With Big Java, 2e, you can:

• Keep up with the latest Java advances. This Second Edition is updated to reflect the innovations of Java Version 5.0, but it can still be used with older versions of the Java SDK (Java 1.2 or higher).
• Get a complete programming and Java reference. Big Java, 2e is a reference that will be of value when studying advanced Java technologies, Internet programming, database access, and many other areas of computer science.
• Master computing concepts and problem solving. The first part of the book encourages you to think as a problem solver, and gives you the resources you need to design efficient and successful programs.
• Take a closer look at the Java language. The second part introduces advanced concepts of the Java programming language, including multithreading, Internet networking, relational databases, XML, and JavaServer Faces.
• Apply what you’ve learned. Realistic case studies and a software engineering focus enable you to tackle complex projects that build upon the knowledge gained across chapters.
• Develop effective habits for professional programming. Quality tips, tips on avoiding common errors, and the online programming style guide teach good programming habits.
