Hello Ajai,
I'm about two chapters deep in http://www.bookpool.com/sm/0672326116 and
I'm pretty happy w/it so far.
Great background into OOP and a gentle introduction into UML.
Enjoying it so far, looking forward to getting more time into it.
- Ben
PS: BTW, just finished Hawkings, "the universe in a nutshell", great
book, leaves you wanting more!

I need to dig up more books like that. Please email me off list if you
have recommendations.
