Hello All,

I need some material for the reading room. Specifically, I'm interested
in gaining a well-rounded education in regards to OOP and all its
associations.

I've gobbled up as much as I can about C# and the tactical aspects of
the language and can hack together a respectable attempt at a
functional, working program but I feel that, in order to move to the
next stage of professional development, I need more thoery.

So.... Could I impose upon the group to recommend some reading material.
Not to be too demanding, but it would be ideal if the material was C#
centric as I have never coded a line of Java, however, I also realize
that there is a wealth of important material available that uses Java,
Smalltalk, C++, as example code due to the chronology of the literature
on the topic.

Again, I'm already loaded up on syntactical material. What I'm looking
for is more theoretical. Kind of a Canon of OOP literature.

Thanks
