Purchase the textbook using amazon or use the online version (posted 10 Mar 08):

It is too frustrating dealing with the bookstore - therefore I have not ordered books through the bookstore. Please use amazon.com to order the following:
    Learning Java by Patrick Niemeyer and Jonathan Knudsen, O'Reilly, 3rd Ed., ISBN: 0-59600-873-2 (2005)

Another possibility is use the online Safari books version at:
http://proquest.safaribooksonline.com/0596008732

Another book you might consider is the following:
    Java How to Program, 6th Edition by Paul Deitel and Harvey Deitel, Prentice-Hall, ISBN: 0-13148-398-9 (2004)
But this one is really expensive - about $80 - so you probably do not want to get it and you will not need it.
