As the application of object technology--particularly the Java programming

language--has become commonplace, a new problem has emerged to confront the

software development community. Significant numbers of poorly designed

programs have been created by less-experienced developers, resulting in

applications that are inefficient and hard to maintain and extend.

Increasingly, software system professionals are discovering just how

difficult it is to work with these inherited, 'non-optimal' applications.

For several years, expert-level object programmers have employed a growing

collection of techniques to improve the structural integrity and performance

of such existing software programs. Referred to as 'refactoring,' these

practices have remained in the domain of experts because no attempt has been

made to transcribe the lore into a form that all developers could use...until now. In Refactoring: Improving the Design of Existing Software,

renowned object technology mentor Martin Fowler breaks new ground,

demystifying these master practices and demonstrating how software

practitioners can realize the significant benefits of this new process.
