DAD'S ARMY

SPHERE, 1976

Some excellent scripting
This book came out in the 1970's and features the scripts of a few of the episodes of this series. The shows chosen were good but maybe not the best ones they made (personal preference only). Has some nice photos and brief biographical information of the actors. Nice little book.

Objects First with Java

David Barnes, Anthony Croft

Prentice-Hall, 2005

Different form the rest! Objects first, objects alive - what OOP is about.
Most other books on Java are practically carbon copies of each other. They'll take you through the same boring sequence of learning. When you get to objects, you're just overwhelmed with (what seems to be) information of little practical relevance - or at least, no fun. One hardly gets the feel for what the Object Oriented programming hype is all about. BlueJ gives you an IDE and code. Like most ...

Advanced Java Game Programming

Apress, 2004

Game Framework
Mr Croft explains his game game framework in this book. This framework is capable of handling 2D games via network, especially for mobile games. The book looks old fashing with a cumbersome layout and code examples which take a lot of space. Also the explained code seems to be old fashing, the new features of jdk1.4 are only mentioned about images, while the java.nio package is missing. Only some ...
