Hi, I posted in comp.lang.c++ before and was told to come here. Can
anyone recommend
a good book on OO for a beginner. I was told Design Patterns is a bit
advanced, and that
The Grady Booch book is out of date.

Thanks

You need to learn OOA/D first, even if you eventually use one of the
OOP-based agile processes. So you need a good OOA/D. The Books category
of my blog has some suggestions for selecting one. [Alas, there are
currently some accessing problems so wait a couple of days before trying
to access it.]

It's actually a bizarrely difficult question to answer.

Booch's book is not really out of date....it's just verbose and
difficult.

'Agile software developement' by Martin isn't really a book about OOA/
D or P.....the clues in the title really.

I would actually say the opposite of Mr Lahman.....I would take a
language that your happy with, and mess about with it.....and get a
book about OOP in that language, not a book about the language but one
specifically about OOP, read it...do the examples....mess
about....post messages onto groups.....generally get a feel for
it.....as an introduction I wouldn't get a book on OOA/D, patterns or
agile developement, I would go onto those after getting a basic
understanding of how it all works.....unfortunately I can't recommend
a specific book.

I think that language is java.I just read ASD and do the examples in
many language,like python, c++,c#,etc.
It`s difficult to find a OOP book in your language after all.
