LAR02

This book is a great illustration of what happens in the Analysis & Design discipline. It teaches
analysis and design, the use of UML, and the application of the concept of pattern in the context of
the Unified Process. By presenting the case study in an iterative, risk-driven, architecture-centric
process, Mr. Larman's advice has a realistic context. He exposes the dynamics of what really happens in
software development and shows the external forces at play. The design activities are connected to
other tasks, and they no longer appear as a purely cerebral activity of systematic transformations or
creative intuition.
