// There are many methods for converting Boolean to Strings and vis versa 

// Static Methods

boolean theValue = Boolean.parseBoolean ( aString ); // converts string to boolean
String aString   = Boolean.toString ( a );           // converts boolean to string 

// and Instance Methods

boolean theValue = aBoolean.booleanValue ( ); // boolean value of Boolean object
String aString   = aBoolean.toString ();      // String of the Boolean object
