Even with nearly 200 pages before you, it's going to be awfully tough to cover all of Tiger's new features. Whether it's called Java 1.5, 2.0, Java 5, or something altogether different, this version of Java is an entirely new beast, and has tons of meat to offer.
Rather than waste time on introductory text, this chapter jumps right into some of the "one-off" features that are new for Tiger, and that don't fit into any of the larger chapters. These will get you used to the developer's notebook format if it's new for you, and introduce some cool tools along the way. Then Chapter 2 gets downright serious, as generics are introduced, and from there to the last page, it's a race to cram everything in.
