5 out of 5 stars A terrific reference   November 7, 2007
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I reckon this is a great book. Generics is a difficult subject for us poor procedural programmers, and this book lays it out in a well-structured, concise but not overly dry form.

I don't like loads of wordy so-called 'real-world' examples to pad out pages. This book gets the balance exactly right.



5 out of 5 stars Buy the book to gain a better understanding into a subtly complex subject   April 3, 2007
 5 out of 5 found this review helpful

I bought this book to get a deeper understanding into how generics are implemented in Java. Beyond the basics, generics are a difficult subject to understand. The book does a good job in highlighting how Sun implemented generics in Java and the reasons for the choices that they made. The book and the subject does require existing Java programming knowledge and so cannot be considered as an introduction text. The examples although brief are to the point; I would have preferred more real life examples to be included. Apart from Angelika Langer's site on Java generics, this book is the best reference on Java generics that you will currently find.
