This page describes a book published by Prentice-Hall (Spain) on Easy Java Simulations.
The book contains a first part that includes a chapter with the pedagogical reasons to use simulations and Ejs in a Physics classroom, as well as a complete description of the tool.
The second part contains step-by-step examples of different Physics simulations created with Ejs. From the simple, to the far from trivial.
Finally, the appendices contain useful reference information on writing Java code, the most popular Java classes, and how to deal with error messages from the Java compiler.
The book has only appeared in Spanish, but we have translated the table of contents below.
