  Great, indispensable. June 26, 2007 I sucessfully passed the SCJP 5.0 exam and this book was undoubtedly essential for my success. I also bought a nice package with 6 mock exams from whizlabs (http://www.whizlabs.com/), and that was essential too.
After this book i could finally understand threads and generics - these are really tough subjects, but the book makes them easy to learn.
Now I also understand all about the public, protected, private and default access modifiers.
I recommend everybody to get certified and to use this book when studying.

I am reading this book and I think that it is an excellent book.
  Choices Are Clear June 3, 2007 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
With reference to some other reviews about the two books, here are my two cents: If you are a beginner or not a Java expert, get Sanghera's book (SCJP for J2SE 5), at least to start with. If you are an expert, Sierra's book is fine. But this book is too difficult for the beginners. The authors of this book (Sierra and Bates) are very honest about it and disclose this fact in the Introduction of the book that this book is not for the beginners. That said both books are execellent.
  If you want the certification it is the book! May 30, 2007 15 minutes per day!! Take notes of the tips and suggestions of the book.
Thanks Katherine Sierra for it amazing book!

  Great Book - so, so test software... May 30, 2007 I like the book very much, and think it would be hard to find a better one to help in studying for the SCJP 5.0 exam.
The software, well... I plan on buying exam software else where...
