Reader Reviews
I have recently started to use this book in an undergraduate application development course which I have taught for the past 5 years. I must have looked at around thirty books before I chose this one. The book I used before this was Rumbaugh's Object-oriented modeling and design copyright 1990. The administration was on me to get a newer textbook. This book is easy to read and covers quite nicely the standard OO concepts of encapsulation, inheritance, aggregation, polymorphism, message sending, etc. I like the way it starts with a simple application, then adds complexity. It does not overload the student with details of UML but covers the main constructs. It does not present a lot of actual implementation code. One twenty page chapter is devoted to OO programming in Java. A good introductory text but not suitable for graduate work.
