DESCRIPTION:
A tour of basic object-oriented concepts follows--from classes and inheritance to collaboration and polymorphism--with UML diagrams to illustrate each concept. First published in French, the English translation is perfectly readable and not overladen with jargon. Next, the book gives a short and sweet explanation of UML notation, such as class, use case, sequence, collaboration, statechart, and deployment diagrams. Instant UML closes with a case study of an access-control system for small building, in which all the relevant UML diagrams are provided. (This sample project is especially good at showing use case diagrams--the "actors" here are the security guards and entrants to the hypothetical building.) In all, this title gives a quick tour in a comprehensible fashion. --Richard Dragan.
Incomprehensible. With apologies to the other reviewers who gave this thing Incomprehensible. A Customer With apologies to the other reviewers who gave this thing 4 or 5 stars, this is the worst technical book I've ever struggled through. As one reader suggests, start with chapter 5 and you may have half a chance of getting something out of this thing. But there is no excuse for the convoluted and obscure writing style found here, even allowing for the translation. or 5 stars, this is the worst technical book I've ever struggled through.

A Great Reference Text Well, having just read Booch's book I still highly rate 'Instant UML'. I think that the title pretty much describes the contents. Its a great text to "dip into", and answer immediate questions you have about the UML and its application. I personally like it because its concise, to the point, and is illustrated with a ton of useful examples. I guess that it is r. Good Book for Experienced OO Programmers Beowulf Let me put my review in perspective. I have been programming in one language or another for twenty years. I was the project manager for a Fortune 500 company's e-commerce initiative. I do some consulting on the side. In other words, I consider myself to be a veteran programmer.As you know by now, Wrox books fall somewhere between expert references and trivial i
UML is a synthesis of Booch, OMT, and OOSE methods. The focus is object oriented modeling: user requirements, analysis, and definition. This book is an introduction to the object modeling approach as well as a tutorial in the UML notation and usage. UML is the Unified Modeling Language, produced in response to the call for a standard notation for the OO application design
