Written by a developer for students who want to make the leap to object-oriented technologies, The Object-Oriented Thought Process, 4/e provides a solutions-oriented approach to object-oriented programming. Students will learn to understand the proper uses of inheritance and composition, the difference between aggregation and association, and the important distinction between interfaces and implementations.



While programming technologies have been changing and evolving over the years, object-oriented concepts remain a constant-no matter what the platform. This revised edition focuses on interoperability across programming technologies, whether students are using objects in traditional application design, in XML-based data transactions, in web page development, in mobile apps, or in any modern programming environment.
