Title: Great first UML book for a Java developer
Review: This is a very good book for someone who has a worked with java at the developer level and is thinking about making the jump to the architect level. Arrington is an experienced teacher and his teaching proficiency shows all along the book. His style is very clear and sometimes repetitive, but that makes sure you get the idea through.Being a "hands on type of guy" I like the fact that the book explains the theory in the context of developing and example application.The UML & Object Oriented Analysis section of the book is truly outstanding, while the implementation part leaves a bit to be desired. It is also outdated as it still uses HTML production classes inside Servlets and not JSP. The second edition should fix this.Overall the best book on UML for a Java developer I have read so far.
