Great book, but the focus is on technique and I don't think it will help to
grok what's special about OOP or Smalltalk. I would recommend "A Mentoring
Course on Smalltalk" which goes way deep into how humans relate to the world
around them and what that has to do with Smalltalk. Also, I've found it very
valuable to read, and re-read, and re-read any relevant articles and papers
from the PARC crew, especially Alan and Dan Ingalls. VPRI also has some good
papers on their website.

HTH,
Sean
