Title: Superb, but abstract. Concise, detailed and highly valuable
Review: I really do like Martin Fowlers books. He is bright, clear, rigorous and relevant. This is his first book and most difficult to grasp book. I started reading it a few years ago and had to give up: it was too abstract for me to grasp. Now with a few more years of OO and pattern experience it shines at me in all its beauty.This book condenses so much Analysis/Architecture/Modeling knowledge that it is difficult to come up with an idea to tackle the abstraction problem. Examples might help but how many does one need. I guess far too many.Still I have a wish: Please write a new edition with UML diagrams and sample code in JAVA.Then I also do have a big wish: I want more of this topic.
