Amazon.com Review Written for managers, Object Success explains in clear, not-too-technical language, all of the key object-orientation concepts. This is the introductory text you need if you're a non-programmer who wants to get up to speed on objects. Loaded with commentary on the management issues involved in developing complex software, object-orientation expert Bertrand Meyer provides you with the background information needed to track and guide object-oriented software-development projects. With the help of this book, managers will be able to speak intelligently with their programmers about what's going on, anticipate common development problems, and be assets to a development team rather than interfering pests who simply distribute paychecks. Meyer, the creator of the respected Eiffel programming language and the author of the excellent (though technical) Object-Oriented Software Construction, begins by exploring 10 key object-orientation principles, including abstraction, inheritance, and restricted communication. Meyer clearly explains these 10 principles without a hint of code. Understanding them will improve your comprehension of modern software design. Meyer then proceeds to discuss the concept of reusability in depth, focusing on the life cycle of software projects and the reusable bits of code they generate. He wraps up the book with thoughts on the roles of various managers in software projects.
