The authors explain ICONIX process from ground up - a design methodology for object-oriented analysis and design. Recommended! This book is not about UML. It is an application of UML. ICONIX process simplifies the use of UML diagrams and uses only 4 UML diagrams, rather than 14 UML diagrams, for the software development from requirement to testing. For the introduction of OOA/OOD, I recommend "Applying UML And Patterns" by Craig Larman.

I am still working my way through the book but so far I am impressed by the authors direct no nonsense views on design and test. I am a software tester and my new project uses UML which I have not worked with before. This book has given me a good overview and explains the terms and diagrams used in UML design very clearly. Keep up the good work guys.

The Rosenbert & Stephens's Book is a great example of doing by practice, but highly supported by foundations about what is important in UML. The book offers a great discussion not only how use UML effectively, but how can you go through practice and coding. That's essencial if you want coding in a right way, but explore the UML notation. The approach with ICONIX was fantastic. You develop a e-Commerce system completely using UML, Iconix process and coding with JAVA. I coudn't found books that offer this path. Fantastic. Excelent aquisition.
