Rating: 5 out of 5 Fascinating book in theoretical computer science! This book attempts to give a "lambda calculus" for objects in OOP and does a fine job in that regard. For those interested in the foundations of programming languages, this book is a "must-have". I can even see applications in it: the DICOM object standards for medical images. Definitely worth reading and worth the price.-LC (Global Mathematics, Inc)
