A comprehensive guide to the Java programming language and the Java SE 11 and Java SE 17 Developer certification exams, this complete reference contains so much information, we had to split the print edition into two volumes for ease of use. This two-volume set features exhaustive coverage of all the Java language features and APIs covered by the exam objectives. Both volumes of this print edition are included in your purchase and are not sold separately.
