If this:

<quote>
Date handling in Java is somewhat littered with land mines. Java 
provides you with a Date class, then tells you not to use it. When you 
use the classes that are supposed to replace the now depreciated Date 
class, you are forced to use Date objects. Use a Date object in your 
code where it will actually get a name and the compiler will flag a warning.

reflects the level of the book, then I better not read it.
