This chapter is intended to reinforce what you have already learnt. It concisely defines the terminology introduced in the last chapter and attempts to clarify issues associated with hierarchies. It also discusses some of the perceived strengths and weaknesses of the object oriented approach and offers some guidance on the approach to take in learning about objects.
