Easily the best introduction to design patterns I've seen. If you're new to object-oriented design or new to design patterns, this is the first (but definitely not the only) book you should buy.
Computer books are so often textbooks written in the high-falutin' language of hooded academics. There's nothing wrong with that, but such language is next to useless for the uninitiated.

I tried to start my design pattern education with the classic GOF's book. Well, it ended with the first few pages and became a coffee cup coaster. Sacrilege, I know, but I have to be honest. I also tried another Head First book, on another topic and while okay, it just didn't speak to me. I only tried this book after a Microsoft Partner I respected recommended it. Wow. It is probably one of the best introductory technical books I've read in my 20 years of programming. The whimsical and technical..more

I fell in love with this book as soon as it got into my hands. I was struck by how it is written and organized.
Unlike all other books, it follows a very exciting comic like writing style. The book is full of humor and it takes the reader step by step towards a solid understanding of what software design patterns are. I clearly got the feeling that the authors are trying hard to make 'me' understand rather than just presenting some information on the topic.

This is one of the best technical books I've ever read. It changed my world as a programmer and what I thought was a good technical book. The topic is very important for any developer that works with object-oriented programming (OOP) and the book presents a complicated topic in a fun, readable way (with lots of pictures!).
I highly recommend this book to any developer, no matter how experienced, and especially those who struggle getting through the long, boring technical books out there and are l..more

This will interest programmers and computer scientists the most, but as you learn near the end of the book, design pattern were first created by an architect! So if you're interested is solving problems or how to break apart a problem into pieces that are more easily solved, this book may interest you.

Entertaining and edifying at the same time! This is one of the best Head First books out there. Read this even if you are not going to be doing any software engineering for sometime since this is the kind of book that stays at the back of your mind when you are trying to write your first few non-toy object-oriented programs.

I would recommend the book to learn design patterns. Design pattern concepts are explained with examples. This could be used as introduction to the design patterns.
Dec 16, 2016Jakub Dziworski rated it really liked it
Way easier to follow than the original 'Design Patterns', but some trivial topics were given too much explanation, which made the book a bit too long.
Should be a must read for young developers even though the book repeats itself a lot sometimes.

not read it completely, just the first 3 chapters.to see the taste of head first series. although it was helpful, but i am comfortable with a book like C# design patterns.
Jul 08, 2010John Chilton rated it really liked it
I am going to give this book a review even though I am only part of the way through, in part because I think it belongs on my highly-recommend list. The original GOF patterns book is good, is a classic, and should probably be on your bookshelf. This however is much better book on patterns for the typical developer, the content is more accessible and is more up-to-date. Moreover this book has a great attitude and is a lot of fun to read.

My rating lies somewhere between (4.5 - 4.7). Can be a fantastic reading for someone looking for the first design pattern book. As mentioned numerous times it is a must read book for software developers and truly it is.
If it is so good why not 5 stars?
- Often the contents are too repetitive. Though authors claim it is intentional so that patterns stick in readers mind sometimes I felt like repetition blocked fluency.

If you want to get up to speed on object oriented programming techniques, but your mind can't handle pages & pages of dense technical prose, then this is for you!
Written & laid out in a comic book style similar to the '.. For Beginners' books (Marx For Beginners, Zen For Beginners etc, see http://www.forbeginnersbooks.com/) the technical explanations are reassuringly well spaced out between brain-friendly pictures and diagrams.

great intro to patterns for noobs like me.
Much more readable than the Gang of Four book.
A bit outdated - lacking functional design patterns and over relies on mutability, especially in the State Pattern.
Everything in the Composite Pattern chapter could be implemented more cleanly and elegantly using the Visitor Pattern. Proxy pattern is pretty outdated too. Then again, the gang of four book is pretty old too at this point.

This is an outstanding book and is actually quite fun to read!
I don't personally own it but we had a copy in out restroom at work and I'd read through it periodically. I read the classic gang of four patterns book prior to this one and I must say that this one is probably better of the two for most people, especially more inexperienced developers.

I'd always been a bit worried about the head first series - they look a bit like astrophysics for idiots - but having read the patterns book I'm impressed, I feel like a lot more has sunk in that the last patters book I read (C# Design Patterns, which was over-obsessed with swim meets and felt like the author had been forced to use C# at gunpoint - I wouldn't recommend it). I also liked getting to do a crossword puzzle at the end of most chapters. It's Java oriented but only gets deeply into Jav..more

Meh, this was fine, but not as tight as Head First SQL - The Head First formula doesn't scale super-well to a book of this size, and the segments are too disconnected. It's still good at giving you the gist of the concept, but the topic of design patterns seems to lend itself to a catalog format that Head First doesn't handle very well. Got me thinking, but I won't be ready to talk intelligently about patterns until I get a more traditional book.

The book picks a totally artificial application (Simulated Ducks!) and then proceeds to extol the virtues of OO. The important point is glossed over in the first few pages, the majority of the duck application is NOT oop. It's procedural and does not benefit from the OOP patterns. Frankly, I am sick of the promises of OOP. From where I sit in the trenches it has it's place but it doesn't work for everything.

It is an excellent book. I do not want to be liar, but I knew a little about patterns before. But my knowledge came to a new level thanks to this book. And it is true. Author write about difficult things using simple words. I can say with all responsibility that it is a definite plus. Humor life examples help to better understand material. The book should be a great start guide for programmers who decide to start learning a basic of software architecture.
Apr 23, 2016Nawar Youssef rated it really liked it · review of another edition
I have read only few chapters and then I stopped for personal and career reasons. I think this is one of the best book for someone to get to introduced into design patterns. The way it's constructed forces the brain to work and learn in a kind of fun way. So it could be so helpful for people who get bored from reading technical books specially beginners.
An amazing display of learning theory in practice. Not only did I learn design patterns from this book (which I tried to do in the past but didn't have the patience for the Gang of Four book), but I learned a lot about teaching and presenting based on the brain-friendly techniques used to keep your attention. This book really is amazing!

Excellent book on Design Patterns. Teaches the core ideas behind the patterns, which helps you to understand and identify when to use them. It also teaches you to avoid the pitfalls of applying the patterns blindly.
Design Patterns
Very good book where you can learn - or relearn - the design patterns by the 'Gang of Four', such as the abstract factory or singleton patterns with a very entertaining and easy to remember fashion. The best of its kind and a 'must have' for any software developer.
Jan 28, 2016Junsong Li rated it it was amazing
This book serves well as an introduction book to Design Patterns.
As it introduces each pattern with enough background on the problem, the key to understand these patterns is to write your solutions before reading the patterns.

My favorite book on application development. App engineers who take their work seriously would do well to familiarize themselves with the design patterns elaborated on here (as well as others -- this book was certainly not comprehensive).
Good book. I really enjoyed reading it. I wish I read it years ago when I didn't know most of the patterns, it would have saved me a lot of time. The writer is very knowledgeable and gives pros and cons on using patterns. Also, he explains when it is a bad idea.
