In addition, if there is sample chapter provided, could the sample chapter be the topics for the new chapters?

In the past, some publishers "re-use" the same sample chapters for several versions.

Ah Nicholas

I think there is a sample chapter on the O'Reilly site - I'll have to check. But I believe it's a chapter that didn't change significantly from the first edition. As I said on another post, if you already have the 1st edition, we'd recommend that you go to the bookstore and skim through the collections / generics chapter - that's about 80% of what's new in the book.

Might be, when the 3rd edition comes, you could suggest the publisher to provide some other chapters.

we're going to look into putting some or all of the generics / collections chapter up on the web somewhere - we'll let everyone at the ranch know if and when we get that done.
