This book covers the essentials of Java:
The fundamentals (names, variables, integer and floating point data types, Boolean data types, arrays, operators, control structures).
Object-oriented programming concepts
(classes, interfaces, overloading and overriding of variables and methods, constructors, packages, import statements, static nested classes, local and anonymous inner classes, qualified names).
The fine points of Java
(exception handling, input/output streams, threads).
The Java Class Libraries (java .lang, java .thread, java .awt, java .awt.event, java .io, java .net).
Java applets (HTTP, HTML, animation) and application programs.
And advanced topics (custom components, Java Beans, Java Swing).

Excerpt
In some important ways, Java has made a complete break from C/C++. It is an object-oriented programming language that completely severs the ties with procedural programming. There are no functions or procedures in Java. This simplifies the task of programmers and software developers by allowing them to concentrate on the programming of objects.
