Recommendation for Java Textbook for teaching programming?

What textbook do you recommend for teaching Java programming class for CS degree program? All the text books are outdated since they are still on Java version 6 or below.

    Yeah. I'd like to know that too. I'm running openjdk-12 but my book is for java (1.)8. Why is Java lagging behind so much or is there just so little change?

    Anyhow I have openjdk-8 installed separately for college and just experiment with what works between versions.
