Fowler's "Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture" still relevant? [closed]

I'm thinking of buying Martin Fowler's "Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture".

From what I can see it seems like a great book, an architectural book with bias towards enterprise Java -- just what I need.

However, in computer years, it is quite old. 2003 was a long time ago, and things have moved on quite a bit since that time.

So I'm wondering if anyone can tell me: is this book still relevant, and worth the read?


Solution 1:

Yes, it is still very relevant and an excellent resource.

Solution 2:

This book, and Eric Evans book about Domain-Driven Design, are my books of the year - every year ;) ...
