This invaluable guide clearly outlines the necessary decisions and issues to consider before employing objects for software development projects. It is filled with practical advice distilled from the authors' extensive experience in the creation and use of object technology: advice covering all aspects of programming languages, development tools, and methods for analysis and design. Recognizing differences in culture and in long- and short-term goals among organizations, the authors observe that no single prescription will work everywhere. To be sure, the authors can-and do-make generally applicable recommendations, and tie these recommendations to the conditions under which they have seen success and failure. But their principal aim is to create a structure that will enable readers to develop their own coherent-and successful-management plans.

Store Description

The Reader's Corner is such fun,it's too bad you have to buy our books on line. We have eight foot tall outside bookshelves across the entire front of the store. There is a money slot in the door for night sales, which go to support National Public Radio. Inside, which can be too crowded at times, are surprisingly good books, only 1% are ever listed on-line. We also sell records, music cd's, comic books, mags, computer software and games. Best of all is the found art decorating every spare spot. The motto on the front door: NO SHOOTING, NO SMOKING, NO MOONING THE MANAGEMENT.
