Rating:  - An excellent overview of OO design and agile practicesBased on articles and papers written by OO guru and former editor of the C++ report, Bob Martin, this book is an excellent overview of both agile software development and of good OO software design practice. It's style and multitude of example code (both in Java and C++) make it very easy to read. Even for those people that don't have an interest in getting involved in Agile development, I would say that the design advice contained within this book would still allow it to have a worthy place on their shelf. A must-read also for anyone struggling with the GoF Design Patterns book. Rating: - Pragmatic, advanced in its concepts, best book in a whileWhile I have read papers of excellent quality by Robert Martin, I wasnt expecting too much with this book on the basis that I havent purchased that many excellent books in a long while. However from the moment I read the first page (the principles to Agile Development), I have hardly had the book out of my sight. In my eyes, Martin is up there with the likes of Meyers, Booch, Oddell etc, and I have to say this book will sit with pride with the only other book that has inspired me so much - Meyers OO Software Construction. While the concepts maybe advanced, this book is still for anyone serious enough about pragmatic software engineering. You will learn some beautiful principles to aid your development efforts, and even half way through the book you will be thinking differently about the software you design. The book is excellent, its as simple as that. Go back to: Agile Software Development, Principles, Patterns, and Practices page 2 of 2
