I came from a heavy C/C++(STL)/Perl background (12 years).I bought about 6 Java books including the Sun ones (language spec + "effective programming", both great).This has been most useful as it's relatively short, covers up to Java 6 (sadly work we only use 5 as we're on mac os X). but it's like a quick ref to the "STL" of Java, at least how i see it .great boook ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good book, on a terriblly poorly implemented feature. *by G***L on April 29, 2013* Coming to JAVA from C++, I was thinking, hey, I need to read up on JAVA Generics, they are like C++ Templates and will help me program better. Ok, yes they do help JAVA but in comparison to C++ Templates they are a terrible compromise by choosing to resolve down to the same basic non typed data in the JVM.On the book, this is an excellent read and you'll be able to use this feature, but after a very short while you'll wish for something better. If you are just getting around to JAVA, I recommend this book if you have to maintain old code, but if you get to write new stuff, start with Scala Programming in Scala: A Comprehensive Step-by-Step Guide, 2nd Edition, you can still call all those legacy JAVA libraries that your company wrote but you can skip this awful stage of the JAVA language. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ To the point and Practical *by M***V on April 18, 2007* This book has everything that you would need to know about Generics. Cutting it short, you"ll be an expert once you finish this book. Some portions (especially the beginning part) are really fast paced, but slow enough to grasped, which is why i said practical in my title. As a Developer for years, i recommend this book for anyone who's looking for quick and dirty book on generics, While quick and dirty sounds superficial, but believe me this book covers everything you'd ever need to know about generics (So yea all those purists can smile now :) ).When i first saw generics in Java i was befuddled to be honest, (to be erm, brutally honest, disappointed, since they are NOT like what really generics are capable, uh yea the Backwards compatibility logic..whatever). But still generics can considerably improve already existing code. There's a lot stuff out there with those list iterations and those nasty casts that you have to make... OK Enough if justification of Generics in Java, which btw isnt necessary, since your looking at this book anyways.Book has 2 sections1.) Generics (will explain everything about generics, with Design patterns that can be used and so forth).2.)Collections Framework (Quite intense, explains everything sufficiently)All in all, a great Buy.ThanksAnirudh ## Frequently Bought Together - Java Generics and Collections: Speed Up the Java Development Process - Java 8 Lambdas: Functional Programming For The Masses - Modern Java in Action: Lambdas, streams, functional and reactive programming --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/17359777-java-generics-and-collections-speed-up-the-java-development-process](https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/17359777-java-generics-and-collections-speed-up-the-java-development-process) --- *Product available on Desertcart Saudi Arabia* *Store origin: SA* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
