Hello Abhay,
The 3-book series "Beginning Java 8" is designed to be read in the following order by beginners:

1. Beginning Java 8 Fundamentals
2. Beginning Java 8 Language Features
3. Beginning Java 8 APIs, Extensions and Libraries

If you have experience in Java, you can pick up any topic in any order from these books.

Thanks
Kishori

Hi Kishori.
I went thrrough the customer reviews about the book Beginning Java 8 APIs, Extensions and Libraries: Swing, JavaFX, JavaScript, JDBC and Network Programming APIs and found them to be fraud.
Please comment since i feel it should be a good investment if i buy your book.

Regards,
Deepak Lal

I would recommend somebody who actually has the book to confront that review. It is incorrect; I went through the “Look Inside” feature on Amazon and found this sort of codeThat suggests to me that whoever posted that review has neither read the book, nor its title.
