Customer Reviews:Average Customer Rating: Page layout and graphics very distracting While there is some good information in Head First Object-Oriented Analysis and Design, it is work to extract that information from the dizzying page layouts. Almost every page has graphics, doodles, designs or some object competing for your attention. This was my first purchase of a Head First title and will probably be my last. While the folks at Head First think they've discovered a new and improved way of delivering information, it's really just poor page layout. For beginners in software development only I expected it is a nice book summing up and showing good examples, and list all valuable OOD principles. But it is not. Makes concepts easier to understand. I'm a software professional and I love this book. It helped me to remember some of the concepts that I have forgotten. Not for those new to Java. Although the books appears easy to understand it it littered with Java code examples so do not buy this book if you aren't comfortable with the Java language. Value Depends on your Use The level of design skill needed depends on who you are. This book would not be of much good to a new developer. If you have built a serious program or more in OO then it will make more sense to you. It also makes more sense if you build bigger applications. My suggestion is put the book on your shelf and pick it up every three or four months as you learn OO. When you arrive the book will be a five. If you expect it to turn your software into five before you are familiar enough with project needs you are looking for being part of a magic solution. It takes experience with coding and business before you will grasp how to use these nuggets of gold. | | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
