Pattern Languages of Program Design 4 (Software Patterns Series)

Rating:
Summary: Okay
Review: Some of the chapters are uninspired formalizations of basic object-oriented concepts, like "Abstract Class" - however, there are a few gems in this book like "Essence" and "Role Object" . . . definitely not as rewarding as the Gang of Four book, however. I hope someone else reviews the rest of it because I'm certainly not going to read the whole thing all the way through.
