Lines: 55 I have the Kim/Lochovsky book and like it. It is a good, though by no means exhaustive, selection of papers about both theoretical and practical aspects of object-oriented systems. I am including the table of contents below to give you an idea of the coverage. Another recent book I am enjoying is "Readings in Object-Oriented Database Systems", edited by Stanley B. Zdonik and David Maier, Morgan-Kaufmann, 1990 (ISBN 0-55860-000-0...can that be right?). If you are interested in OODBs, this book will definitely bring you up to date. - Walt --------------------- Object-Oriented Concepts, Databases, and Applications by Won Kim and Frederick H.
