Objects First with Java: A Practical Introduction Using BlueJ, 5e, is ideal for introductory courses in Java/Introduction to Programming and Object-Oriented Programming and for beginning programmers.This is the only introductory programming textbook that uses the BlueJ integrated development environment (IDE) to teach introductory and object-oriented programming principles using Java. Its close integration with the BlueJ development environment allows this book to focus on key aspects of object-oriented software development from day one. BlueJ's clear visualization of classes and objects means that readers can immediately appreciate the differences between them, and gain a much better understanding of the nature of an object than they would from simply reading source code. Unlike traditional textbooks, the chapters are not ordered by language features but by software development concepts. Language features are introduced as a response to the problems to be solved. A large number of different, interesting projects are used to provide variety and avoid the monotony of a running problem.This book takes an "objects first" approach to teaching the traditionally difficult concepts of objects in a manipulative visual form. Throughout, the emphasis is on developing a practical approach to programming, with students encouraged to add code to existing programs rather than working with an intimidating sheet of blank paper. This textbook is printed in four-color to aid pedagogy and reader learning.

Las relaciones internacionales de las regiones: energía e infraestructura - la nueva agenda internacional .En marzo de 2006 la Comisión Europea presentó el Libro Verde sobre una energía competitiva, sostenible y segura. El Consejo Europeo respaldó las propuestas del libro y encomendó a la Comisión elaborar un documento estratégico de revisión de la política energética, que vio la luz en enero de 2007. Durante la presidencia alemana del Consejo Europeo se acordó un plan de acción que plantea ambiciosos objetivos en términos de ahorro y fuentes energéticas y que propone la mejora de la cooperación transfronteriza entre los Estados nacionales y las regiones vecinas. El conjunto de estudios que integran el presente volumen analiza, desde distintas perspectivas, las respuestas de las regiones al nuevo desafío energético.

La tercera edición de Programación orientada a objetos con Java. Una introducción práctica unsando BlueJ es un libro que presenta un excelente e innovador aspecto docente para adentrarse en el mundo de la Programacion Orientada a Objetos.
