The tour of the Java programming language provided in Java 2 Exam Prep naturally centres on the basics needed to complete certification. You'll get all the required details here, including everything from key words, data types and arrays to designing classes and using built-in API's like AWT, Swing and network classes.
But it's the review test questions that are probably the distinguishing feature of this book. Each chapter presents about twenty review questions. (Earlier sections generally have more and later sections have a few less.) By the end of the book, any reader who carefully works through these problems will have a definite leg up on the certification exam. While other review books certainly provide sample Java questions, the range of quizzed material in Java 2 Exam Prep is a standout.
Each chapter also has short hands-on exercises. After reading about basic concepts and necessary API's, and trying out the test questions, you can discover possible holes in your Java knowledge. The exercises let you build knowledge in weaker areas. The layout of each chapter lets you concentrate on those areas that need the most work.
If the format of Java 2 Exam Prep is a winner, its pleasant tone and clearly presented review of essential material can help bring blurry topics into focus. Though the Java certification exams themselves are known for their sometimes arcane detail, the up-front style of Java 2 Exam Prep may be just what you need to review Java successfully and earn Java certification. --Richard Dragan, Amazon.com
