Case Studies in Object-oriented Analysis and Design (Yourdon Press Computing Series)

Written by a co-developer of one of the most popular OOA/OOD methods, this exceptionally practical and authoritative casebook shows how object-oriented analysis and design are actually practiced in developing real systems--i.e., shows the insight (rather than the technique) that was applied to each point in a solution--false starts and all.
