Hello Ajai,
I'll take a look at that. Thing is, it doesn't have to be a php oop
book. I just want
it to really flesh out all the OOP Design details.
Strange as it may sound, I like the dry academic books. heh.
UML would be great for what I'm doing. I find I'm lacking a
way to describe a program, both verbally and visually. I think
that's where UML will come in handy.
Thanks Ajai,
- Ben

Which I did and started reading it (twice) and it just assumes too much.
I have zero OOP experience (well that's not really true) and need more
explanation than that book provides.
Here's a list of OOP books I've collected from Bookpool. Can anyone
provide insight as to which are good.
I've been coding for a few years now professionally, but dont have any
real schooling in it.
So, I'm kinda looking to fill in the gaps in my knowledge. So other
books of interest I'm welcome to hear too.
I used Peter Lavin's book to learn PHP5 OOP:

The list:

Most of these are too dry and academic for me.
I also looked into using UML and found it to be not of much value for what
Im doing.
