good books in Smalltalk and that as a comunity this is our
responsibility to make these books having the success they need.  One
way to do this is to add review into the following eseller (I tried but
failed on amazon but I will retry, I should be stupid)

Up to now only the book of Didier Besset is out (this is a good
christmas gift by the way)

"Object-Oriented Implementation of Numerical Methods" reveals a
complete OO design methodology in a clear and systematic way. Each
method is presented in a consistent format, beginning with a short
explanation and following

with a description of the general OO architecture for the algorithm.
Next, the code implementations are discussed and presented along with
real-world examples that the author, an experienced software engineer,
has used in a variety of commercial applications.
