You see, the claim that "Java is a simple language" is not true. It is possibly somewhat simpler than C++, but it is by no means trivial to learn. Most books on Java programming gloss over this fact, resulting in trouble for the true novice who blames him or herself for not understanding immediately.
This book is different: unlike all others, it has been tested on and contributed to by an actual novice whose input resulted in a very approachable book. It covers far less material than other books on Java, but much more thoroughly, so that the novice is not left behind.
My advice for novices is: don't be fooled by the statement that a particular book is suitable for a complete novice. Instead, look several books over and see which one is appropriate for you. If you include "Who's Afraid of Java?" in that list, I think that's the one you'll choose.
To help you make your decision, you might want to check out the readers comments on my previous book, "Who's Afraid of C++?" (ISBN 0123390974).
