Developing Java Software

The new edition of this excellent primer teaches how to program in an object-oriented style. Objects come first providing a framework for understanding how Java programs work and how they can be designed, in an organised and systematic way. Programming is taught with a view to quality software engineering and is anchored in real world issues, particularly testing. Examples and exercises provide motivation. Self- tests and class project suggestions enhance this comprehensive study package.
The purpose of this book is to take readers from the basic principles of object-oriented design and programming using Java through to class library construction and application development.
