Lucky Us, we get 5 undergraduate computer-science/engineering student
interns here this summer. (That will keep us on our toes.) Each of them
now gets a copy of
Design Patterns
Design Patterns SmallTalk Companion
The Practice of Programming
The Python Standard Library (Fredrik Lundh's book is out)
of their very own to keep. (And if Beazley's Essential Reference for
2.0 ever gets out of the publishers they will get that as well.)
But I have found a hole. I need a book every bit as excellent
(and terse) as the rest of my list that teaches Object Oriented
Programming to somebody who has never studied it. If you know the
books I listed, you will know the sort I want ... and if you _don't_
know the books I listed do yourself a big favour make a present of
them to yourself.
I don't care what language is used for examples. I want the concepts,
not the cookbook.
What should I get? And (if you have time) why?
Laura
