about the technology
Java's history of innovation, its huge collection of libraries and frameworks, and the flexibility of the JVM have cemented its place as one of the world's most popular programming languages. Although it's easy to get started with Java, understanding how the language intersects with the JVM is the key to unlocking the power of this awesome language and its deep ecosystem of frameworks, tools, and alternative JVM-based languages.about the book
The Well-Grounded Java Developer, Second Edition is a complete revision of the classic original with the latest innovations of the Java platform. It upgrades your existing Java skills with both JVM fundamentals like bytecode, and powerful new features such as modules and concurrency models.You'll broaden your understanding of what's possible by exploring Kotlin and other JVM languages, and learn how functional programming can offer a powerful new perspective. Each concept is illustrated with hands-on examples, including a fully modularized application/library, build setups for Maven and Gradle, and creating your own multithreaded application.
