Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

In this eagerly awaited second edition, Grady Booch draws upon the rich and varied results of those projects and offers improved methods for object development and a new, unified notation. With numerous examples implemented in C++, Booch illustrates essential concepts, explains the method, and shows successful applications in a variety of fields. Booch also gives pragmatic advice on a host of issues, including classification, implementation strategies, and cost-effective project management. A two-time winner of Software Development's coveted Jolt Cola Product Excellence Award!

From the Back Cover

Features of the New Edition:

Presents a new, unified notation that incorporates the best ideas from Booch's notation and other widely-used methods
Uses C++, rapidly emerging as a standard programming language for object development, in all programming examples and applications
Includes new examples of real world projects, including a client/server architecture and an application framework
Distinguishes between good and bad object-oriented analysis and design and shows how to evaluate architectural tradeoffs to manage complexity
Includes extensive new detail on the process and pragmatics of object-oriented analysis and design

This is the essential reference for anyone who implements or manages object technologies, or who wishes to begin exploration of this important new paradigm.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Having originated the term and the practice of object-oriented design, Grady Booch is best known for his work in advancing the fields of software engineering and software architecture. His current research is focused on embodied cognition, wherein for the past several years he has been working with a group of neuroscientists to develop a pattern language of the brain. A co-author of the Unified Modeling Language (UML), a founding member of the Agile Alliance, and a founding member of the Hillside Group, Grady has published six books and several hundred technical articles, including an ongoing column for IEEE Software. For over a decade, Grady was a trustee for the Computer History Museum. He is an IBM Fellow, an ACM Fellow, an IEEE Fellow, has been awarded the Lovelace Medal and has given the Turing Lecture for the BCS, and was recently named an IEEE Computer Pioneer. He is currently developing a major trans-media documentary for public broadcast on the intersection of computing and the human experience.

A favorite re-readable book for OO Analysis and Design

A favorite re-readable book for OO Analysis and Design

The author drives home the inherent complexity of software design and the need for OO analysis and design to alleviate that complexity. Current developers using an object-oriented approach and developers new to OO design and analysis can benefit from this book.

A book on *using* OOP

Reviewed in the United States on September 3, 2000

After reading some of the less flattering reviews of this book, it seems that many reviewers were expecting a book on object-oriented programming in general. If you want to learn how program, this is not the book for you. This book is about *using* object-oriented techniques to architect systems. The content you should take away from it is entirely independent of any particular language.
Some of the steps in becoming a good OOP programmer/architect are listed below (1 & 2 are often combined):
1. learn an OO language
2. learn OOP
3. learn how to *use* OOP

Step three is where this book and, for example, books on object-oriented design patterns (GoF) come in. Just because because you know what classes and inheritance are does not mean you will use them effectively. I cannot emphasise the importance of step 3 enough when architecting applications. If you are a coder, simply knowing OOP is fine, as an architect it is simply not enough.
In terms of organization, the book starts simple and builds on previous chapters in a very organized way. In the first chapter Booch delves into the philosophy of OOP and complex systems. This kind of broad introduction serves well as a way to show where OO analysis and design stand relative to other engineering disciplines.
The only problem I had with the book is the fact that it is a bit dated. It does not use UML (although what it uses is very similar) and even has a chapter devoted to client/server computing. (however, it also has a chapter on AI). If it were not for this its datedness, I would have easily given it 5/5.
Overall a great book from one of the father's of modern objected oriented analysis/design.

A beacon of light in a world of darkness

Reviewed in the United States on October 29, 1999

After reading the other reviews I have a few comments.
1. In 1994 when this book was published Java was in development and had no ways near the popularity it has today. (According to Cay Hortsmann Java did not burst onto the scene until late 1995)
2. Bertrand Meyer's book is great and contains valuable wisdom, but all of its examples are in Eiffel. While Eiffel is a great language what are my chances finding a job writing Eiffel.
But really all of the above comments are pointless. The fact of the matter is that the concepts in an Object-Oriented book should be language independent. However, to be most effective authors reinforce abstract ideas by including concrete examples. Which means the author must pick a language or write in pseudo code. Booch's book is a valuable reference to be used in learning how to apply Object-Oriented concepts to the analysis and design portion of the software development process. It is up to you to know your own problem domain or work with experts who do. I personally write software that deals with weapon trajectories and weapon effects and just because the book does not have any examples on this domain does note mean it is not valuable. The job of this book is to teach me how to think in terms of objects and how to find and design my classes and class hierarchies. It succeeds, Thanks Grady Booch.

Daniel Ill i Ferrer (dill@bcn.indra-espacio.es)

A lot of words to explain a few graphical notations...

Reviewed in the United States on June 9, 1999

Like a lot of books ( Yourdon, Ward - Mellor , etc.. ) about analysis and design: a lot of words ( 589 pages ) to say very few new thinks and to explain a few graphical conventions that could be explained in 10 pages. If you are a beginner you can find all the provided ideas at the same time that you read a tutorial about C++ and learn a concrete OO language, for example the Stroustrup book. I agree with another reader comment saying that Booch ego is notable. He uses the third person ( majestic plural) when refers to him... He provides a bibliography so big that goes form Aquinas and Plato to Wirth to give you an idea about what you need to read to become a methodology guru.

Reviewed in the United States on June 11, 1999

I read this book about five years ago from cover to cover, omitting a couple of the extended examples. Honestly, it did not make me significantly better at designing programs or analyzing requirements. It's been said there's no silver bullet for designing programs, but considering this book's wide reputation it ought to be helpful. And I don't think it helped me except I guess in a subtle slight deepbackground way. Certainly there are things in the book that are worth knowing but this is not the best place to get them from, imho.

Nothings perfect. Irrespective, this should be on every OO programmers bookshelf.

Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2008

I have read few software engineering books that have been perfect. Some of this book is not perfect. The wisdom in the text, in the white space and beyond, is priceless. It is important to consider that Robert Martin, whose books on the theory and art of object oriented software development, amongst other subjects, are immense. Robert worked with Booch, and his greatness stands on the shoulders of Booch. You may not get everything from a first read of this book, and thats the beauty - it distills so many ideas in some many ways, that every time you read it, you get to share in the vision and deeper ideas behind the concepts.

This will always have a space on my shelf.
