Anyway, it's not just from the Lisp community. It's more generally from the
functional programming community, and even from people in the Perl community
like Mark Jason Dominus (who probably truly belongs in all three
communities). But there's still value in learning about patterns, because
they are often elegant solutions to difficult design problems.
Also, here's another candidate book on OO design: Grady Booch,
"Object-Oriented Design"
It was recommended by Bjarne Stroustrup in an interview I was just reading,
and Booch has been a huge name in the OO design community for a long time, so
I imagine it's good.
Is this the one? There did not seem to be one just called
"Object-Oriented Design":
Object oriented design with applications (Benjamin/Cummings series in Ada
and software engineering) by Grady Booch (Hardcover - Sep 1990)
http://www.amazon.com/oriented-applications-Benjamin-Cummings-engineering/dp/0805300910/sr=1-1/qid=1162943646/ref=sr_1_1/002-7548996-2549610?ie=UTF8&s=books
Also, which "Functional Programming" book were you thinking of when you
recommend it as a follow-up to my current studies?
Thanks,
Jonathan
