The fast and easy way to understanding the fundamentals of OOP
Want to learn about object-oriented programming quickly and easily? Looking to brush up on modeling, classes, and attributes? Then OOP Demystified is the easy-to-understand, step-by-step guidebook that will help you figure out the ins-and-outs of object-oriented programming (OOP).
Written for anyone without formal training in the subject, OOP Demystified teaches complex OOP topics in clear, plain language―from the reasons why objects are successful as models for programming to case modeling, class diagrams, interfaces, and much more. The authors leave out unnecessary, time-consuming information to deliver the essentials you need to begin and maintain all your OOP projects.
Simple enough for a beginner, but challenging enough for an advanced student, OOP Demystified is your shortcut to mastering object-oriented programming.
This one-of-a-kind self-teaching text offers:
- An easy way to understand OOP
- A quiz at the end of each chapter
- A final exam at the end of the book
- No unnecessary technical jargon
- A time-saving approach

Concise, but not written well.
By Y
As a beginning programmer, I've been devouring books on programming geared toward people that are just starting out. I bought this book because I thought it would be wise to have a solid understanding of Object Oriented Programming in general before trying to dive into other programming things. While I was able to get what i needed form the book, I do have several complaints.
The first is that one the front cover of the book it clearly states "No formal training in OOP needed!" This is blatantly misleading, and the authors of the books FREQUENTLY say things like "you should recall from your programming course" or "you'll remember this from your C++ programming course" etc. This is annoying, because someone who had taken multiple programming courses probably wouldn't need to be reading this book; I'd assume someone who had taken multiple programming courses would already understand OOP. I believe a lot of people who bought this book and gave it 5 stars were already programmers who bought this book just to read for the heck of it (I've noticed that programmers have a habit of reading as many programming books as they can whether they already know the subject or not). That's fine, but a lot of people who buy this book are beginners and although the book is still understandable and doesn't really require any prior knowledge in programming, it's annoying to buy a book that literally says "no formal training needed" and then tells you that you should remember things from programming classes. One thing that is a problem with this, however, is that occasionally the author includes a lengthy code example without really explaining it since we as the readers are supposed to "recall from our programming courses."
The second big annoyance that I had with this book is also fairly minor and doesn't cause any serious problems to someone trying to learn. That is that this books frequently jumps back and forth between C++ and Java terms. At the beginning of the book, it explicitly states that when referring to a method/function it will use the term "method" (the Java way to say it) instead of the term "function" (the C++ way to say it). This is untrue, and the author(s) repeatedly and totally randomly jump back and forth between terms. They're synonymous, but it's still confusing for a beginner that the authors are simultaneously presenting two programming languages and then mixing the terms even after they claimed that they wouldn't. The mixing gets so bad that at some points Java and C++ terms are mixed even in the same sentence. Again, this is not a huge problem, but it's annoying, confusing for a beginner, and frankly just plain unprofessional. The authors are professional programmers with decades of experience; they should be able to show some consistency and use the proper terms.
The third complaint I have is another claim made on the front cover.. "Concise and thorough with minimal technical jargon." While I admit that it's concise and thorough, it makes no attempt whatsoever to spare the reader from technical jargon. While I understand this, as it's impossible to teach programming without introducing programming 'jargon,' it shouldn't have been claimed on the front cover that technical jargon is kept to a minimal when it's just not. I'd also like to point out that the author occasionally tries to use metaphors to explain something and they're bad. Just bad. I'd rather have taken it straight and just skipped the metaphor. Also frustrating is that throughout the entire book, the only example used in any code is demonstrating the process of a student registering. Not a big deal, but I was sick of it by the end of the book.
To conclude this lengthy review which I sit here and write in the middle of the night due to insomnia, I'll say that I gave this book three stars, BECAUSE:
Pros:
* Unlike my review, this book is short yet thorough. Only about 300, but lays the foundation of what you'll need to know to jump into OOP in real life.
* The quizzes/final exam are a nice touch and do help the reader to remember. The final is troublingly long (100 questions), but if you can answer them all, you're set to dive into OOP head first.
Cons:
* "No formal training in OOP" claim made on cover, yet statements like "you should remember from your programming course" are frequently used. Prior knowledge in programming is not required, but it is assumed.
* Severe lack of consistency in terms used throughout the entire book. Author(s) constantly switch back and forth between Java and C++ terms.
* Does not have "minimal technical jargon" as claimed.
* Boring and uses the same example throughout the entire book to illustrate all concepts.

Very good OOP book - concise, clear, and brief
By L. Raymond
I especially like reading Ch 8 -- Real-World Modeling. Not like all OOP books I read so far that the author will 'hard-sell' OOP as the best approach and by far better than procedural languages by simply demonistrating a small function and small application as to convince the readers.
The author in this book is so honest to point out the SKILLS needed to apply the OOP theory into a [workable and useful] BUSINESS application, and the difficulties the developers will surely encounter in REALITY when using OOP. This is helpful if business organization are thinking of using OOP as their solution rather than the 'already proven sounding' procedural languages and relational database in the business environment.
