Are you preparing for Coding Interviews? If yes then you might know that there are a number of free online resources to practice important topics for coding Interviews e.g. data structure and algorithms, database and SQL, and others. These websites are equally useful for both, new programmers who are just learning the fundamentals and for experienced ones who are brushing up their coding skills for interviews. I have been sharing useful resources for programming and technical interviews from a long time in this book. In past, I have shared some recommended books for coding interviews and some of the frequently asked programming interview questions from tech companies (see here ). But, my readers have been asking about some recommended websites for practicing programming challenges and coding interview questions. Read more �

In the last 2 decade many Java programmers started programming with C and C++ but the situation is changed now, you have more choices e.g. you can choose Python or you can even start with Java. It seems Academia is preferring Python in USA and Java in India, but there are still many programmers who know C and C++ and wants to learn Java for one or other reasons. I often receive emails from my readers about book recommendation and recently a couple of them asked me to suggest best Java books for C and C++ programmer. I can relate those beginners to myself because I have also gone through the same phase but those days the university text books are our only source to learn new thing. We didn't have broadband and unlimited access to Internet and eBooks was not popular at that time but things have changed.

In this article, I will share five best books to learn concurrent programming in Java . These books cover basics, starting from how to create and start a thread, parallel programming, concurrency design patterns , an advantage of concurrency and of course pitfalls, issues, and problems introduced due to multithreading. learning concurrent programming is a difficult task, not even in Java but also on other languages like C++ or modern days JVM languages like Groovy , Scala , Closure , and JRuby .

These top Java programming books are some of the good books to learn Java and I would say some of them are simply best Java books ever published. Whenever a programmer starts learning Java programming language, first question he asks is " Which book should I refer to learn Java?" , or "What is the best book to learn Java for beginners?" or "Can you tell me some good books to learn Java?" .That itself says how important Java books are for programmers especially beginners. Despite having so many free resources available in Java like tutorials , tips, blogs and code examples, Java books has their own place because of two reasons: They are written by programmers who are authority in subject They cover the subject with more details and explanation.
