I like _Learning Java_ by O'Reilly. It's got all the basics, but also enough advanced material to keep the book as a reference after you're done with the introductory material. I've looked at a few other beginning Java books such as Head First and the Deital book, and I think Learning Java is head and shoulders above both. For online resources, besides the two Lew mentioned, I also like the javapassion.com website. It's run by a researcher who works for Sun and gives free on-line classes in various aspects of Java programming. The introductory class appears to be starting in about 3 weeks, on August 11th. It might be a good idea to jump on that. http://www.javapassion.com/javaintro/
