What book to start with?

Question

Java

Good afternoon. I want to learn java to develop an android application. I want to start with books. But I don't want to stumble upon old (or bad) books where learning is done on an outdated version of the PL. And in general, I am responsible for the choice of books. I know there is a lot of information on the internet.
But I want to know from experienced guys which book to start with.
Experience in programming: I know the basics of php.

What book should I start learning from and what should I read further to reach the middle level?

Answer 1

First, Java is fully backwards compatible and most of the language was written over twenty years ago. Accordingly, Java 1.2 books are still relevant. Secondly, this question has been asked here dozens of times. For example .
PS You can get to the middle only as a result of two or three years of work in the office under the guidance of experienced colleagues.
