Title: Significant lack of substance
Review: OK, OK, granted that I spend my life around design patterns. But I expected a book with the title Design Patterns Explained to explain. Instead it seems to be soft and without many examples. I bought it with the hope that it would help my endeaver to finish a design patterns workbook but found no substance that I could gleam.It also lacks a full coverage of the 23 design patterns in the GOF book.Buy the book if you only want an overview, otherwise go through the pain of the GOF book Design Patterns, Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software. It is cryptic and hard to grasp but the substance is there.
