in reply to Really Writing Object Oriented Perl

Just some books you might find interesting:

Conway's Object Oriented Perl gives a good overview of available OO techniques in perl and how to use them effectively.

Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software focuses mostly on C++, so some solutions aren't really perl-compatible or can be accomplished much easier in a dynamic language like perl, but it has wealth of interesting OO solutions to real-world problems, with enough detail to be immediately useful and enough theory to make them applicable to related problems.

    But Conway's book predates Inside-Out Objects, so it doesn't even mention them.

      Conway's book predates the Perl community's commonplace adoption of the term "Inside-Out Objects". The concept is there; Conway calls them "Flyweight Objects". The terms aren't exact synonyms, but close enough for the present purpose; there's some relevant discussion in this thread.
