Rating:  Summary: Ecxellence Review: The book is an ecxellence guide to apply UML in the enterprise modeling. Usefull also the Business Patterns.
Rating:  Summary: Very high level, often inconsistent Review: The models in this book are interesting but they are too high level to be useful. The modelling style is inconsistent e.g. missing multiplicities. Some of the models are contradictary. If you have absolutely no idea about any of this stuff, and are interested in the absolute basics, then this book might be useful. If you want to understand the subtleties of a business domain, it won't help.

Rating:  Summary: Very useful !! Review: While I didn't really enjoy UML Toolkit I do enjoy this book. The presentation and writing styles are same between books however, which are very structured and easy to follow however.This book does a wonderful job of discussing the "design patterns" around the activities of a business, this is it's strength. While I haven't yet mapped these out in UML to a business I think they can stand on their own outside of UML. UML just makes the flow more understandable. Overall the design patterns are enough to recommend it. Very novel and useful!
