Hi , can anyone recommend a good OO book for a beginner.

Is the Grady Booch book any good?

Thanks

No. OO is not about philosophy, it's about reducing the clutter in your
program. Booch hearkens to an era of sophistries that our industry has
grown beyond.

I assume that you're looking to take the Booch connection on to C++:
Designing Object Oriented C++ Applications Using The Booch Method by
Robert Cecil Martin.

I bought a book nearly 10 years ago called UML and C++: A Practical
Guide to Object-Oriented Development, By Richard C. Lee, William M.
Tepfenhart, which I thought wasn't bad. IIRC a second edition was
published a few years later.
