"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
Rather than preaching a particular methodology, this text helps readers crystallize their ideas about and upgrade their skills in design. Instructions show programmers how to put together what they know about using and programming in object-oriented languages, the mechanics of method invocations and inheritance. The text aims to teach users to design programs with the right balance of performance, reusability and features. Information is also included on: how to choose class libraries; what the buzzwords don't mean; myths and pitfalls; when it's appropriate to use object-oriented design and when it's not; and design patterns. The accompanying CD-ROM includes a guide to Internet programming resources, source code and executables associated with the book, and pointers to Java resources and Web sites.
