Many resources - books, magazine articles, and web sites - focus on how to work with the artifacts of the Unified Modeling Language (UML) as well as other modeling techniques.  These resources introduce you to various modeling artifacts, describe a methodology for applying the artifacts in practice, or describe how to apply patterns and strategies for creating better models.  Unfortunately few of these resources touch on the subject of style and when they do they rarely devote little space to it.  This includes my own book, The Object Primer 3/e, which provides an excellent overview of UML artifacts (as well as a few others because the UML isn't sufficient for real-world development) and how to take them all the way to Java code and a relational database on the back end.
