SCJP Exam for J2SE 5

Sun has released the latest version of Java, J2SE 5.0 and accordingly updated the Sun Certified Java Programmer (SCJP) exam to CX-310-055 quite recently.

An SCJP book has the largest Java certification market because the SCJP exam is a pre-requisite for all other five Java certification exams. Apress adds this new SCJP exam book to its list of certification books, including SCJD Exam with J2SE 5, Second Edition by Terry Camerlengo and Andrew Monkhouse.

Best selling author, Paul Sanghera, offers a cohesive, concise, yet comprehensive book on all the topics covered by the SCJP exam. With a laser sharp focus on the exam objectives, it goes beyond just being an ?exam cram?. The material is presented in a logical learning sequence: a section builds upon previous sections and a chapter on previous chapters. All concepts, simple and complex, are defined and explained when they appear the first time. There is no hopping from topic to topic and no jargon without explanation. No prior knowledge of Java programming is assumed.

Although the primary purpose of the book is to help the reader pass the SCJP exam, it will also serve as a good reference after the exam.
