Object Oriented Programming An Evolutionary Approach

Object Oriented Programming, An Evolutionary Approach by BradCox

Two editions:

• First Edition, May 1986
• Second Edition, May 1991 ISBN 0201548348

One of the first published books to talk about object oriented programming. It also heavily pitched code reuse. It discussed some practical language constructs (using ObjectiveCee to demonstrate) which would help make ObjectOrientedProgramming and reuse possible (at a time when neither really was).

This book was my introduction to OOP, and served for a long time as the model in my head for how code reuse could be attained. Although some of its precepts were naive and are now somewhat dated, it was an excellent introduction and a worthy carrier of the OO banner until better treatments came along. -- StephenHumphrey
