Grady Booch is best known for developing the Unified Modeling Language with Ivar Jacobson and James Rumbaugh. He also developed the Booch method of software development, which he presents in his book, Object Oriented Analysis and Design. He advises adding more classes to simplify complex code. Booch is also an advocate of design patterns. (For instance, he wrote the foreword to Design Patterns, an early and highly influential book in the field.) In the 1980s, Booch wrote one of the more popular books on programming in Ada.

Famous quotes containing the word work:
“What is history? Its beginning is that of the centuries of systematic work devoted to the solution of the enigma of death, so that death itself may eventually be overcome. That is why people write symphonies, and why they discover mathematical infinity and electromagnetic waves.”
—Boris Pasternak (1890–1960)
“Madness is the absolute break with the work of art; it forms the constitutive moment of abolition, which dissolves in time the truth of the work of art.”
—Michel Foucault (1926–1984)
“The better a work is, the more it attracts criticism; it is like the fleas who rush to jump on white linens.”
