Hi,
Does this cover just OO programming in Java or is it a more general book on programming and covers functional too?

Hi Will,

The book discusses general programming practices, it just happens to use Java as a demonstration language. Most of the material generalises to other languages.

It mentions a few functional programming approaches as suggested improvements over imperative approaches, but to say that it 'covers' functional would be too grand a word.
