My book is different to the many others because it is not just a glowing review and hype about objects. Yes OT is a good technology, but there is more to it than that. We still need to get many other things right. This book will not be popular with certain segments of the industry, because it gets to the truth, but I wrote it because I felt it needed writing, and the industry needs its message if computing is to become a respectable profession. If you want the truth behind programming in general and object technology in particular, you cannot afford to miss my book.
Object technology appears to be a bewildering field in constant turmoil.
But the core concepts of object-oriented programming endure as a paradigm for advanced programming methodology. By analyzing and comparing three different object-oriented languages, Objects Unencapsulated probes the core of object technology to examine how various language features affect software productivity. Features and interfaces. Inheritance and genericity. Concurrency and garbage collection.
