Isn’t it full of quite obvious things? I’ve read it 15+ years ago, when I only had half a year of experience, all of that with an OSS project in Java (really badly written). And I’ve came up with half of the patterns independently.
And then I switched into Python, where you just don’t need majority of those patterns anyway.
So I wouldn’t recommend this book 15 years ago, let alone today. And as the only book? Never :)
