I read Head First Design Patterns (http://oreilly.com/catalog/9780596007126). It 
focuses on Java and it's not only good because of the nice woman on the cover. 
;-)

 Cheers!!

I have Design Patterns on my desk. And I will check out the Timothy Budd and
Grady Booch book. I think we might even have the first edition of that
book - a benefit
of working at a library. Thanks Alan!
