Data Structures and Algorithms in Java Summary

Data Structures and Algorithms in Java by Peter Drake

An abundance of unique, interesting examples, use of the Unified Modeling Language throughout, and the newest Java 1.5 features characterize this text. Drake provides a concise and engaging introduction to Java and object-oriented programming, assuming familiarity with the basic control structures of Java or C and only a pre-calculus level of mathematics.
