Can you recommend a book about design patterns? (factory patterns, singleton patterns etc)

[Joakim Olesen]

Hi,

I'm looking for a book/books about design patterns (factory patterns,
singleton patterns etc). The book doesn't have to be aimed towards C#
developers in particular, but the patterns should of course be useful in a
..Net/C# environment.

I hope you can help me. Thanks in advance!

I always see this one recommended as the "definitive" book on design
patterns.

If you're new to design patterns, this book might also be very
helpful....
