A fantastic pattern reference stars-5-0
Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture is an absolutely indispensable reference - if you're in the business of writing Enterprise Applications. Clearly and articulately presented, with lots of hard-won wisdom and insight - it's more topically relevant than to enterprise applications than the gang of four, etc - and of equally high quality.
Must have if you want to know stars-5-0
From the get go this book stands out as a very solid review on the subject. Highly recommend to anyone who needs serious advise on the subject.
Crappiest architecture book stars-1-0
This is one of the stinky and crappiest architecture book I have read.

The more i read the more I was frustated and reading further.

The sample code doesnt match the explanation provided. The sentences are so vague seems that the author was drunk while writting this book ..

The best part of the book is the title very fancy and inviting .. but the book is really a crap.

I would recommend

Great book stars-5-0
This is one of the most useful books about patterns I've found. This book was recommended by my lecturer at university and do not regret buying it.

You have to have some programming experience or you miss most of the value of this book. Although most of the examples are in Java or C# and I haven't use those languages regularly it was not difficult to understand them. Nevertheless, knowing the basics of Object-Oriented programming is a must.

This book has found a solid location in my bookshelf in the handbooks section.
Excellent book, but is it time for a 2nd edition? stars-5-0
I want to say first of all that this is an awesome book, one of my favorite books and a must-read for anyone who wants to be involved in enterprise computing.

Beginners can quickly learn the field's key terms and concepts and understand why things are done in a certain way. Intermediate and expert developers can use it to explore the design options available to them and revisit and modernize their designs in the future.

What do I not like about this book? Although I understand the book size limitations and the author warns readers right away about what didn't fit in, I still wish there was more coverage of mobile applications and problems unique to mobile front-ends.

Seven years after the book was originally published, and now that smartphone-based UI becoming more and more popular every year, I wish there was a second edition of this great book with more coverage of this particular area of enterprise applications.
