First of all I am a EE major and not a CS major. That being out of the way this book is more or less useless. True, it does introduce you to Animator and some programming. However, what it does NOT do is help with learning JAVA. I myself understand what I need my program to do but am frustrated by how to do just that on some of his assignments and his exams. If you are not required to purchase this book don't otherwise if you are well there is not much I can say. In addition, a book that I have found that may be useful is Beginning Java Objects. Other reviewers have made suggestions of titles that are more useful then this one. If you are a nonprogrammer it is worth your while to invest in one of the books mentioned by me or the other reviewers. Hell, the tutors make it easier to understand JAVA then this "book" does.
