Oh dear God, that's the last thing he should do. That book is so incredibly dull. It makes Death Valley look like a lush rain forest.
Might I suggest Head First Design Patterns [1] as a good introductory alternative that won't sap his will to live.

- DavidSchor 16y agoThank you to both of you. I own and have read both - I agree they are excellent. My question was however not concerning design patterns, but architectural patterns, such as MVC, Blackboard or a layering. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Architectural_pattern http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Architectural_pattern I found the collection of concrete examples/applications of design patterns interesting, and wondered if anyone knew of a similar collection of examples/application of common architectural patterns.
