Java Programming

I am looking for a good and comprehensive up to date Java book that describes all the basics and also more advanced features like:

Basic types
Design (basic patterns)
Inheritance
Casting
Interfaces
generics
Collections
...
...


I have considered:

http://www.amazon.com/Introduction-Programming-Object-Oriented-Design-Using/dp/0470128712/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1238233911&sr=8-2

Since I would like a Design approach to Java.

But would like to hear if there are better alternatives or some classics for java like "The C-programming Language" for C.
