Object Thinking

• Used Book in Good Condition

<p>In OBJECT THINKING, esteemed object technologist David West contends that the mindset makes the programmer€"not the tools and techniques. Delving into the history, philosophy, and even politics of object-oriented programming, West reveals how the best programmers rely on analysis and conceptualization€"on thinking€"rather than formal process and methods.
