You're not alone At any given moment somewhere in the world someone struggles with the same software design problems you have You know you don't want to reinvent the wheel (or worse a flat tire) so you look to Design Patterns--the lessons learned by those who've faced the same problems With Design Patterns you get to take advantage of the best practices & experience of others so that you can spend your time onsomething else Something more challenging Something more complex Something more fun You want to learn about the patterns that matter--why to use them when to use them how to use them (and when NOT to use them) But you don't just want to see how patterns look in a book you want to know how they look in the wild In their native environment In other words in real world applications You also want to learn how patterns are used in the Java API & how to exploit Java's built-in pattern support in your own code You want to learn the real OO design principles & why everything your boss told you about inheritance might be wrong (and what to do instead) You want to learn how those principles will help the next time you're up a creek without a design paddle pattern Most importantly you want to learn the secret language of Design Patterns so that you can hold your own with your co-worker (and impress cocktail party guests) when he casually mentions his stunningly clever use of Command Facade Proxy & Factory in between sips of a martini You'll easily counter with your deep understanding of why Singleton isn't as simple as it sounds how the Factory is so often misunderstood or on the real relationship between Decorator Facade & Adapter With Head First Design Patterns you'll avoid the embarrassment of thinking Decorator is something from the Trading Spaces show Best of all in a way that won't put you to sleep!
