Good clear book on a great language for programmers

This book offers a clear description of OOP concepts in the context of Eiffel and "design-by-contract".There is a realistic case study that continues on throughout the book. This is the book to read if you want to really get your teeth into Eiffel.It is true that this book is not for the total newbie to programming.This book is best read by someone who has a couple of notches and a couple of languages in his programming repertoire(...)Rist is a senior lecturer in the dept of computer science at the University of Technology Sydney and his book has been "battle hardened" by being used in the Comp Sci course there.You can find download part of the book from his home page, but the book is defintely worth buying if you are serious about Eiffel.My only quibble with this book is that it is on Eiffel and not on one of the delightful functional languages like Ocaml , SML or Haskell.But that is like complaining that a camel is not a daisy ...
