Rating: Summary: Indepth, but hard to follow Review: I found this book very hard to read at times, and tedious at other times. If you can stick with it long enough, it starts to make sense, and there as a ton of very good information to be found. It is well written and logically organised, I just wish it were a bit more enjoyable to read.
Rating: Summary: Good basic and quick book for UML Review: If you have a general idea of SDLC, this is a perfect book for you. It doesn't bring you into detail but good enough to give you a general idea of all the static and dynamic diagrams. This is also a great book for students who do not want to dig too deep into a concept and not knowing how to apply them.EQ.
Rating: Summary: Very good for STUDENTS Review: This book touches on all the right subjects but does not go -in my opinion- deep into any. I like the sequence in which the information is organised and presented. It is nice to include case studies, but I am not sure about the completeness of the case studies or if, in fact, these can be implemented from the design provided. It is a novelty to provide discussion topics very often throughout the text, but it would have been better, if not essential, to discuss the issues in the text or direct us to some other resource where the discussions take place. All in all, there are other books that do the job better of introducing UML or discussing advanced issues, but this text is probably the best to be used on an undergraduate course. Its value to software engineers in the industry, though, is questionable.
