Head First Java is aimed at people who are complete novices when it comes to programming with the language, and the book makes the learning experience fun - one that?s filled with innovative and novel measures.
If you?re not a fan of wracking your brain with dull theoretical concepts that put you to sleep, Head First Java can be a welcome addition to your shelf.
The book starts from the fundamentals and progresses to extremely advanced levels, employing an easy-to-learn approach throughout. From distributed programming with RMI and network sockets, object oriented design, and object properties and methods, to graphical user interfaces, Java archives, network connectivity and Java 5.0, the book explores every facet of the programming language with mysteries, puzzles and visuals that will keep you engaged.
The unusual format is based on the theory that the brain needs stimulation to grasp complex issues. The adopted approach brings about a considerable reduction in the time required to grasp the language.

Summary Of The Book
With the explosive increase in the usage of computers and networking systems, data communication and networking technologies are advancing at a fast pace. As the use of these technologies has become increasingly common, the need to cultivate an understanding of these technologies is also on the increase.
Students and professionals from various study streams, specializations, and backgrounds now take courses on data communication and networking. Not all of them may have previous knowledge of data communication and telecommunication concepts, and keeping this in mind, this book begins with the basics of the technology and slowly builds on the same.
This book uses the five layer TCP/IP protocol suite as the framework for the text. It begins with an introduction to the technologies of networking and data communication. The section provides an overview of network topologies, types of networks, and an overview of the Internet. The next chapter focuses on the major network protocols, OSI and TCP/IP.
Further, the book has been divided into sections that talk about the five layers of Internet architecture - the Physical Layer, Data Link Layer, Network Layer, Transport Layer, and Application Layer.
The Physical Layer section explains aspects of telecommunication that are relevant to the Physical Layer. It takes a look at transmission media and switching and provides an overview of how telephone and cable TV networks can be used for data communication.
The Data Link Layer section covers error detection and corrections, data link control concepts, and Local Area Networks (LANs) and Wide Area Networks (WANs). The Network Layer section focuses on topics like IP address and Network Layer protocols like IP, ICMP, ARP, and IGMP. This section also explains delivery, routing, and forwarding of data packets.
The Transport Layer section provides an overview of the functionalities of this layer. It provides an introduction to the transport layer protocols - TCP, UDP, and SCTP.The section also discusses the issues of congestion and quality of service.
The Application Layer section focuses on the Domain Name System (DNS). This technology is used to map application layer addresses to network layer addresses. It also takes a look at the World Wide Web (WWW) and the HTTP and SNMP protocols. The section also explains remote logging, e-mail, and file transfer
There is a separate section on security in this book, and it discusses topics like cryptography, network security, and Internet-related security concepts like firewalls, VPN, SSL/TLS etc.
The book has a large number of illustrations and pictures that greatly help in explaining the concepts covered. The author uses real-life examples in relevant sections and important points are emphasized in highlighted boxes. Each chapter ends with a summary, a list of key terms, practice sets of questions and exercises, and a section on recommended reading for further knowledge on the topics covered.
The Appendix contains review and quick reference material. The book ends with a comprehensive set of glossary and acronyms.

If you REALLY like
exercising your brain, figuring things 'round and 'round till you
explode,
then this is the book is for you !
A puzzle is a problem or enigma that tests the ingenuity of the solver. In a basic puzzle, one is intended to put together pieces in a logical way in order to come up with the desired solution. Puzzles are often contrived as a form of entertainment, but they can also stem from serious mathematical or logistical problems — in such cases, their successful resolution can be a significant contribution to mathematical research.
Solutions to puzzles may require recognizing patterns and creating a particular order. People with a high inductive reasoning aptitude may be better at solving these puzzles than others. Puzzles based on the process of inquiry and discovery to complete may be solved faster by those with good deduction skills
