 Great Book! Easy to understand. Just what I needed... |
| Review Date: September 1, 2009 |
| Reviewer: Lee Thornton, Fort Lauderdale |
This book was just what I needed to get a grasp on the design patterns and learn how to use them correctly. The examples are small enough to wrap my head around but big enough to get the idea of what is going on. I would recomend this to anyone that is a php programmer working wiht objects.
I have had the book for only 2 days and I already used the facade and the decorator pattern in a project. Just after I got the code installed on the website the owner changed his mind and requested some code changes. I found that it was much easier to manage his changes since I used the design patterns shown in this book. Actually it was almost a pleasure to make the changes to the code since it was set up properly in the first place.

few examples and not all patterns treated

| Reviewer: Gianluca, Rome, ITALY |
First, sorry for mistakes, I'm from Italy so I will be very concise.
The problems of this book are:
- examples for each pattern: only one example and very very very ... too simple! examples in design pattern are very important - for me - , I think that a usefull book on patterns should present four or five examples for each pattern, at least.
- not all patterns are treated! What about "Chain of Responsability"? And "Abstract Factory"? And "Bridge"? And "composite" ? And "Flyweight"? This book has only 238 page, and you treat about pattern from 26 to 125 ... I think this is not enought. |
