Seamless Object-Oriented Software Architecture : Analysis and Design of Reliable Systems (The Object-Oriented) by Kim Walden, Jean-Marc Nerson
Describes the BON method, which grew out of attempts to formalise Eiffel into a design language. BON offers hope for complex and large projects with compression of diagrams without loss of readability. The visual notation is paralleled by a textual form. Martin's book rescues the Booch method from some of the smoke-and-mirrors that goes into identifying objects, but BON has different approaches that are worth investigating.
