Data structures and other objects using Java

the long version

"In this book, author Michael Main takes a gentle approach to the data structures course in Java. The text offers an early, self-contained review of object-oriented programming and Java to give students a firm grasp of key concepts, and allows students with a variety of backgrounds to adjust easily to the course. This book offers a flexibility that gives professors such options as emphasizing object-oriented programming, covering recursion and sorting early or accelerating the pace of the course. Main's book meets the needs of professors searching for a text that balances object-oriented programming and data structures with Java."--BOOK JACKET.
