Customer ReviewsRating: 1 out of 5 practical advice buy the Sams book by Schmuller "Learn UML in 24 Hours" and the "C# Design Patterns" book by Coopergood grief...UML is simple enough to learn in 30 minutes buy a straightforward book that has NO padding Only Larner, Booch, or Fowler could expand the subject into many pages using padding. If you liked the book, you are one of: (1) a sheep (2) his friend (3) demented Rating: 5 out of 5 Excellent book to start learning OO paradigm I try to learn OO for about 2 years. It's very difficult to me to learn it. This book helps me much. By reading the book, i realize that building a good OO-based application is not that difficult. The author has provided easy steps to be followed. If you want to learn how to build a masterpiece app, buy this book Rating: 5 out of 5 Primo primer on UML & patterns in an agile context Those who said this book isn't applicable to the real world must not work in the real world. The agile UP implementation described herein addresses many of the problems faced by front-heavy software methodologies today. I work for an enterprise consulting firm, and would like to get everyone at my company to read this book.It is an excellent primer on using UML and patterns in the context of an agile unified process, with examples in Java. Even as an experienced architect/developer, I found the book enlightening -- it's definitely not your standard "intro for dummies" book. Although I'm a big Fowler fan, I found its treatment of UML to be much more applicable (love the examples) than UML Distilled. It's also a great introduction to why and how to implement an agile process. A particular favorite of mine is its laundry list of things that indicate you AREN'T following an agile process, which should be a checklist for software development companies everywhere. I just wish I could give this book more stars!
