The book "Modern Java Language" - is it worth reading?

Question

Java

Interested in feedback from developers who read this book, namely, the presentation of the material, the correctness of the translation into Russian, the quality of the material.

Answer 1

Good afternoon!
Yes, good book. The authors, if I'm not mistaken, are Urma Raul-Gabriel and Mycroft Alan.
I will say this, you should not start learning Java from this book, since it mainly talks about lambda expressions and the Stream API and the Optional class, how they are arranged.
In general, a good book, but if you are just starting out, it is better to read something simpler for now.
For example,
G. Schildt - The Complete Java Guide by
B. Eckel. - Horstman's Java philosophy
- Java for professionals, etc.
In a word, learning java only from this book will not work.
