I am **AMAZED** by the head first approach. I purchased "Head first design patterns", and I love it. I can't express how grateful I am that for once someone company tried to deliver knowledge in a different (and in my eyes very much more effective!) way. Actually after having taken a look into HFDP I picked up the "gang of four", because -- after all -- it does look more "serious" and has an excellent reputation, so I thought I might maybe be better of buying this one.
About one minute later I was purchasing the Head First book.
And yes, it's that great. I am actually looking forward to reading a new chapter, every time I have to take a break. (Remember? It's a book about software design theory, not a Dan Brown thriller, right?)
It's funny, informational, and it gets the knowledge into my brain. I love it.
But - I have one little plea: "HEAD FIRST UML 2.0".
Everyone seems to love UML, but -- to be honest -- this is by far the most boring, dry, non-practical, headache-creating stuff to be learned by reading a book. But after seeing the Head First approach, I start to think that this could be done a bit better ... :)

What I forgot to ask - next time in color, maybe? For that I would even give a six star rating ... :)

Hello -
Very glad to hear you like Head First!
To answer your questions:
Head First Objects, coming out in 2006 will have some UML. Head First UML is definitely on our list of "would love to have" titles, so hopefully that will come soon, too.
Color: Head First HTML with CSS & XHTML is a beautiful, four color book. You'll see this in stores in December.
