เป็นหนังสือสอน Design Pattern ที่อธิบายได้เข้าใจง่ายที่สุดในหลายๆ เล่ม
ข้อเสียคือไม่ได้ครอบคลุม Pattern ครบทุกแบบ (มีไม่ถึงครึ่งของ Pattern ทั้งหมด)

After seeing Alan Shalloway speak in person, and enjoying it greatly, I decided to get his book. Having read Design Patterns, I found this book to add fairly little, using a large number of words.

The earlier chapters that present strategies for deriving design patterns from the principles of object oriented programming, and particularly the notion of "encapsulate what varies" are helpful, however.

Good introduction to design patterns and some of the higher principles of object-oriented design. Follows my own personal discovery of the fundamental principle of isolating change. I discovered it while I was reading Wolfgang Pree's Design Patterns for Object-Oriented Software Development, right after I had read the Gang of Four book in 1994.

A good book for junior developers, but I am way beyond it by now.

I hear great things about this book. I hope to get around to reading it one of these days instead of just looking at it on my shelf!
