Assuming a backgound in C++ basics, this book helps programmers to develop their programming expertise by giving a feel for the styles and idioms of the language. The approach is organized around the abstractions that C++ supports: abstracts data types, combining types in inheritance. The book also explores idioms that thte core of the C++ language does not support directly, such as virtual constructors, prototype objects, and advanced garbage collection techniques.

Design patterns is the most significant emerging area in the field of object-oriented technology. This work provides an overview of current approaches as well as practical guidelines for their use in software design. It builds a conceptual and terminological base and goes on to discuss how design patterns constitute a minimal yet sufficient means to meet the goal of capturing and communicating the design of complex object-oriented systems.

Coplien provides invaluable advice on design ing complex, multiparadigm programs. He describes each parad igm and explains how it solves design problems at hand and h ow it applies to C++. '

Multi-Paradigm Design for C++

More and more Agile projects are seeking architectural roots as they struggle with complexity and scale - and they're seeking lightweight ways to do it <ul>
<li>
Still seeking? In this book the authors help you to find your own path</li> <li>Taking cues from Lean development, they can help steer your project toward practices with longstanding track records</li> <li>
Up-front architecture? Sure. You can deliver an architecture as code that compiles and that concretely guides development without bogging it down in a mass of documents and guesses about the implementation</li> <li>
Documentation? Even a whiteboard diagram, or a CRC card, is documentation: the goal isn't to avoid documentation, but to document just the right things in just the right amount</li> <li>
Process? This all works within the frameworks of Scrum, XP, and other Agile approaches 
</li> </ul>

Lean Architecture: for Agile Software Development

Gain insights and depth of rationale into Scrum from many highly respected world authorities, including one of its founders, who lead you through the deep foundations of Scrum's structure and practice. Enhance and customize your Scrum practice with ninety-four organizational building blocks, called patterns, that you can freely and flexibly choose from to fit your needs. Understand and appreciate the history of Scrum and the role it plays in solving common problems in product development. Building a successful product usually involves teams of people, and many choose the Scrum approach to aid in creating products that deliver the highest possible value. Implementing Scrum gives teams a collection of powerful ideas they can assemble to fit their needs and meet their goals. The ninety-four patterns contained within are elaborated nuggets of insight into Scrum's building blocks, how they work, and how to use them. They offer novices a roadmap for starting from scratch, yet they help intermediate practitioners fine-tune or fortify their Scrum implementations. Experienced practitioners can use the patterns and supporting explanations to get a better understanding of how the parts of Scrum complement each other to solve common problems in product development. The patterns are written in the well-known Alexandrian form, whose roots in architecture and design have enjoyed broad application in the software world. The form organizes each pattern so you can navigate directly to organizational design tradeoffs or jump to the solution or rationale that makes the solution work. The patterns flow together naturally through the context sections at their beginning and end. Learn everything you need to know to master and implement Scrum one step at a time - the agile way.
