As a Fresher, We tend to choose Technology that are trending in current era without any in depth knowledge about Technical aspect of the trending technology and its growth and stability issue.
If you are looking to go into Java Technology, So as Fresher I would personally recommend this book to you as it has covered the basic concept of the Object Oriented Programming with java.The Practical examples are also explained very well.
I would recommend this book to if you are knew to Java and if you are not that then It would be better go for advance books for Java because it covers only Basic of Java.
