Learn Programming: Computer books about how to program computers
I must admit, I haven’t finished the book. I find it nearly unreadable. There might be some crumbs of useful wisdom, but the boredom reading the book sent any brain cells to sleep that could absorb that wisdom. If the book would be condensed to – say — 250 pages, it might be useful (did anyone edit the book?).
I really must admit that I envy people who had the time, energy and concentration to finish the book.

This book is good for small projects and small teams, or for using the techniques found in it for module level analysis. The author attempts to apply his thoughts to large projects, but they would be extremely hard to apply or pull off. He has some great thoughts on how to absorb domain knowledge, but goes over board bashing the Unified Process and other proven techniques. He isn’t coming up with anything new, but he does do an excellent job of creating a book. It is very well organized. BTW, if I thought that XP could be pulled off anywhere in the world, with any group of programmers, this book would get a 10+ rating. I think XP works but only in very specific environments. Most environments do not allow for an enterprise level effort of XP.

This book is the bible of domain modeling. This is a must read for any architect or developer that has to provide solutions for complex domains. The examples in this book are real-world, make sense, and are applicable to solving any business problem. The only wish I have is that I haven’t read this book years ago.

This book was produced in 2004 but is already a classic. It is one of the most important books for people interested in object-oriented programming. Every programmer should read it.

Really like this book, and have added it to my essential reading list.
Many of the underlying essential techniques for structuring models are described in a fair amount of detail in the book “Objects, Components, and Frameworks with UML: The Catalysis Approach”. In addition that work adds the dimension of “refinement” which is a very useful tool in your domain-driven design toolbox.
