Head First Design Patterns

Due to persuasion and positive review of the book "Head First Design Patterns" on javalobby, I decided to give a shot to the book. I downloaded the chapter three of the book and start reading it and after going through the book, I got convinced by the reviewer that this is going to be the java best seller. Here is how reviewer utters it -

I have to say this is one of the best books on Java programming I have ever read, and that I am a much better programmer now than I was before I read it. Most Java books focus on Java syntax, and on Java's support for object oriented programming. However, they fall very short when it comes to actually teaching how to apply object oriented programming. Many computer science courses also fall short when it comes to teaching how to actually apply object oriented programming, hence we end up with programmers who over-use inheritance and thus write code that is very difficult to maintain. That is where Head First Design Patterns come to the rescue.

So what are my comments? :-) The same as the reviewer. The book is excellent book on design patterns. Go and download the free chapter and let me know your opinion.
