Summary: A good overview.
Comment: I read this book, along with Entsminger's Tao of Objects, when I needed to gain a good "technical lay person's" understanding of object-oriented technology. Though I've since done some rudimentary programming to hammer home the key concepts, I recommend both books.

Rating: 4
Summary: Useful but preachy
Comment: The book provides a good high-level introduction to object-oriented concepts and I would recommend it to anyone BEFORE they take their first Java or C++ class. With OO concepts well in hand, the nuts and bolts of programming will go much easier. The downside to the book is that the author spends a lot of time on a soapbox (or in a pulpit) preaching the gospel of how OO design will change the world as we know it. He even predicts that Oracle will soon go out of business because it is not object -oriented at it's core. If you can overlook the author's philosophy (religion?), the book is well worth reading.

Rating: 4
Summary: A good primer: easy to read and nicely illustrated.
Comment: This book helped me understand object technology and how adaptive systems can provide an edge to companies facing ever-changing scenarios. The author is very honest by recommending readers to check the appendix first, where he offers a software development primer - a recommended reading to even those who think that they know everything about it. It's an honest book that delivers the concepts without insulting someone's mind (it does not treat you like a dummy).
