Query: can't understand why so many people like this book!

Don't give me that "this book isn't meant for non-programmers stuff". The book is very poorly written and is very unorganized. It digresses into examples that illustrate some obscure features of java without even explaining the prominent features first! It includes lengthy, detailed examples that have nothing to do with the chapters or section headings the examples appear in! I get the feeling the authors sit around getting chummy with other "experienced programmers" and talking about obscure problems they solved on some prior job. Not the thorough, organized book you'd expect to build your foundational knowledge of java on!!!
