Q: What is a good java reference book?

| I would like advice on what to buy for a good reference book. I don't
need hand-holding, I just need a good, thorough, reference book. I am
a casual c/c++ programmer that had an introduction to java some years
ago and would like to pick it up again. Thanks.

The site has some sample chapters for you to look at.

"Learning Java" is an O'Reilly book. Personally I like the Head First
Java book and TIJ by Eckel.
