As Brad himself mentioned, there is a new edition of the book out.  I have
it, and am enjoying it.  It's nice to read the book without syntax from
the older days of Obj-C.

Here's the new citation:

@book{Cox90,
	title="Object--Oriented Programming : an Evolutionary Approach",
	author="B. J. Cox and A. J. Novobilski",
	year="1991",
	publisher="Addison-Wesley",
	address="Reading, MA",
	ISBN="0-201-54834-8"}

Thanks for the new book guys!
