Agile Software Development, Principles, Patterns, and Practices

Last week a book I requested arrived: Agile Software Development, Principles, Patterns, and Practices by Robert C. Martin. I haven't had the time to dive in to it, but my first impression is this book is a good one. Nice quote I ran into on the first page, as one of the principles agile development follows:

Simplicity - The art of maximizing the amount of work not done.

It's an excellent book. A bit too much on the oo-patterns I think. I would've liked to see more Agile practices in the way Uncle Bob writes. I loved reading this book.

I've bought this book as well (see <a href="http://fgheysels.blogspot.com/2006/01/buying-books.html">here</a>, and I'm expecting a lot from it.
I've already read a few pages, but, 'till now I haven't learned any new things... (I've only read 30 pages yet. :) ).

ps: it's been a while since I've seen you on t.net ?
