Each commentary is inspired by a particular passage in the book. One commentary is based on Grady Booch's foreword. In it, among many other things, Booch mentions the "object-oriented analysis and design method wars." In preparing the commentary, I uncovered a "relic," i.e., a presentation that I gave at a software development conference ten years ago. This was before the full advent of the Rational Unified Process (RUP), and the major introduction of "agile approaches." If you are interested, you can get a copy of the 26 slides from the presentation at http://www.toa.com/pub/AdvancedOOAD.zip. [Boehm and Turner, 2004]. B. Boehm and R. Turner, Balancing Agility and Discipline: A Guide for the Perplexed, Addison-Wesley, Boston, Massachusetts, 2004. I hope that you find it of some interest. -- Ed -- Edward V.
