'The Elements of Java Style is perfect in what it tries to achieve. Each rule is sensible, hardly any are debatable, and there is no excuse for ignoring any of them.' JavaZone Book of the Week
This is a great resource for any serious Java developer
We wrote this book to share with you a collection of proven, industry best practices for writing robust Java code. This book is short, 128 pages, and the size of a pocket book so it's easy to carry around with you. It describes 108 practices for writing superior Java code. As an author I guess you can say that I'm biased, but frankly this is the type of book that I think every Java programmer should have. It's focus is on how to write clean, high-quality code, something that every good programmer strives for. The techniques that we discuss not only result in better code, I truly believe that they will also help to increase your productivity during both development and maintenance (yikes, the dreaded M-word) of your code. Even though the book has only been available for two months now, we're already seeing it get adopted as the coding guidelines document for Java programming teams and even as a supplementary text for college-level Java programming courses.
I like to look at it like this: It took 7 guys a year to write a 128-page book, so it has to be good. ;-)

Paperback. Condition: Good. The Elements of Java Style, written by renowned author Scott Ambler, Rogue Wave Software Vice President Alan Vermeulen, and a team of programmers from Rogue Wave, is for anyone who writes Java code. While there are many books that explain the syntax and basic use of Java, this book, first published in 2000, explains not just what you can do with the syntax, but what you ought to do. Just as Strunk and White's The Elements of Style provides rules of usage for the English language, this book provides a set of rules for Java practitioners to follow. While illustrating these rules with parallel examples of correct and incorrect usage, the book provides a collection of standards, conventions, and guidelines for writing solid Java code which will be easy to understand, maintain, and enhance. Anyone who writes Java code or plans to should have this book next to their computer. Seller Inventory # 00110348938
