Question for Richard Reese

[Pallavi Sadit]

Hi Richard,
Welcome to the Coderanch. Can this book help someone who is just a beginner in Java, or is it only meant for the readers who are already familiar with earlier versions of Java and are interested in knowing the new features introduced in Java 8?
This one is just plain curiosity, what is the significance of Avocados on the cover design ?

Hi Tim,
I didn't understand why the post is moved to new topic, also the link is sending me to someone else's question. Also your post is addressed Nina Sky?

[Campbell Ritchie]

Because Nina Sky posted something irrelevant to your question, and her post has been moved to create a new thread. I don't yet know what she said.
