Data Structures and Abstractions with Java is a relatable and friendly introduction to data structures and their implementation. The text introduces you to data structures (CS-2) in a supportive, reader-friendly way. To increase readability and learning potential, the numbered segments and modular presentation provide a flexible, customizable pathway through the material and focus your attention on one concept at a time.

The 5th Edition has a revamped structure and additional pedagogical tools to assist in mastering concepts. Numerous examples that mimic real-world situations provide context for the new material and help you learn and retain abstract concepts.
