Excellent book to understand OO concepts
I think this a text for computer science students, so it explains a lot of basics. It is for those who want to understand "object-oriented" programming. If you are already familiar with "structured" programming, then buy this book just to understand what object orientation is. What I got most out of it is an extremely clear concept of Object Oriented design and programming.

dull, unclear, disorganized and vague
This book is printed in a two color scheme that fails to draw attention to relevant points. Concepts are introduced with promises to be explained later. Components of code are not clearly explained. A sensation of being lost or of trying to stay awake during a long winded boring speech is what I found.Not good for the beginner.

A very good intro book
While there are some small errors (ie: spelling , etc), as others noted, I found this overall to be an excelent intro book. The fact that Morelli covers each subject from multiple angles is a GOOD thing , espcially in an intro book. Not all of us learn the same way after all. Now, perhaps I am a tad biased, as I go to Trinity (Professor Morelli is a CS Prof. here). However I must say my initial reaction to using a "locally" written book, was one of worry. I was, of course, pleasantly suprised to find the book very well written with plenty of examples, lots of neat little "tidbits" which are clearly marked as non-essential if you're trying to find the key theme.I wholeheartedly recommend this book for classes as well as for reference , heck, this almost puts the teacher out of work ! (a star is taken off for the occasional typographical error)
