Thanks for the info on
Smalltalk, Objects, and Design, by Chamond Liu
I finally found a pdf version online
Just into it.
I prefer his type of writing with a great deal of background and examples.
I'm project less and will follow Chamond's lead.
Did you actually use IBM Small talk when using the book?
Thank You
Paul
I learned Smalltalk from some of the books listed on Stef Ducasse's web page: http://stephane.ducasse.free.fr/FreeBooks.html
I found the following particularly useful:
Smalltalk by Example, by Alex Sharp
Smalltalk With Style, by Edward Klimas, Suzanne Skublics and David A Thomas
And a great book for beginners:
Smalltalk, Objects, and Design, by Chamond Liu
This was also surprisingly useful (terse, but well structured):
On To Smalltalk, by Patrick Henry Winston
It's essential to get into coding as quickly as possible (work on a small project!); then the books are used mainly for reference instead of learning.
