"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
Each chapter concentrates on a particular aspect of Java as it relates to the exam. As you'd expect, there's discussion of Java language, implementation issues, usage, best practice and alternative approaches, but the structure is somewhat eclectic and unfocussed. Sections end with a set of multi-choice self-test questions with the answers and explanations at the back of the book.
As with most books designed to help you pass certification exams, the Sun Certification Programmer for Java 2 Study Guide really isn't all that useful for much else. It assumes you're already a Java programmer, and isn't a reference or a how-to book. It prepares you for an exam. The self-test questions are the most interesting part of the book. This is because the Sun exam tends to test your knowledge of less well-known operators, unusual constructions and gotchas. While this book won't help you tackle real-life Java programming projects, it may well help you get paid to work on such a project. --Steve Patient
