Java by Dissection 2nd Edition

Authors : Ira Pohl, Charlie McDowell 

Java by Dissection:2ed is an introduction to programming in Java that assumes no prior programming experience. It thoroughly teaches modern programming techniques using Java with generics. It shows how all the basic data types and control statements are used traditionally. The book then progresses to the object-oriented features of the language and their importance to program design. As such the first half of the book can be used in a first programming course for college students. By careful choice of exercises and supplemental material it could be used for a gentle introduction to programming for computer science or engineering majors also.
The second half of the book explains in detail much that is sophisticated about Java, such as its threading,exception handling, graphical user interface (GUI), generics, and file manipulation capabilities. As such the book is suitable as the primary text in an advanced programming course, or as a supplementary text in a course on data structures, software methodology, comparative languages, or other course in which the
instructor wants Java to be the language of choice.
