+<p>Although it has evolved since, the Apache Isis framework started out as an open source implementation of the naked objects pattern.  Indeed, the generic user interfaces provided by Isis <a href="../viewers/wicket/about.html">Wicket</a> and <a href="../viewers/scimpi/about.html">Scimpi</a> viewers just naked objects systems, providing a default generic representation of domain objects.  The <a href="../viewers/restfulobjects/about.html">Restful Objects</a> viewer is also a naked objects system; it's just that the representation is intended for machines rather than human beings.</p>
 
-<p>Isis graduated from the Apache incubator in October 2012; we are currently setting ourselves up as a top-level project.</p>
+<p>If the idea of naked objects is of interest, then there are a couple of books on the topic that you might want to read.</p>
 
-<p>In the meantime you can access our original incubator website <a href="http://incubator.apache.org/isis" title="Apache Isis (incubator website)">here</a>.</p>
+<h3>Naked Objects</h3>
+
+<p><img src="resources/books/nakedobjects-book.jpg" alt="" />
+Richard Pawson and Robert Matthews, Wiley 2002</p>
+
+<p>This book describes the original ideas of Naked Objects. Although based on a very early version of the framework, it's still definitely worth a read (and beautifully produced).</p>
+
+<p>Amazon quotes: (avg 5 stars)</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li>Brilliant argument and toolkit for information systems</li>
+<li>Most thoughtful and beautiful technical book I have read</li>
+<li>Excellent presentation of an innovative practical idea</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>The book is freely available online <a href="http://www.nakedobjects.org/book/">here</a>. Or, you can get a hardcopy of the book at <a href="http://eu.wiley.com/WileyCDA/WileyTitle/productCd-0470844205.html">Wiley (publisher)</a> and <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Naked-Objects-Richard-Pawson/dp/0470844205">Amazon</a>.</p>

+<h3>Domain Driven Design using Naked Objects</h3>
+
+<p><img src="resources/books/dhnako.jpg" alt="" />
+Dan Haywood, Pragmatic Bookshelf 2009</p>
+
+<p>This more recent book draws the parallel between domain-driven design and Naked Objects (4.0). In the spirit of the Pragmatic Bookshelf, it's a practical, hands-on sort of book, building up a case study as it goes and encouraging you to build your own app as you go.</p>
+
+<p>Amazon quotes: (avg 4.5 stars)</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li>Important Contribution to Domain-Driven Design</li>
+<li>The easy-to-learn Naked Objects Framework .. provide[s] a masterful exposition on DDD</li>
+<li>Clear and passionate book about a great subject</li>
+<li>Excellent book and a great framework</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>You can find the book at <a href="http://www.pragprog.com/titles/dhnako/domain-driven-design-using-naked-objects">Pragmatic Bookshelf (publisher)</a> and <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Domain-Driven-Design-Objects-Pragmatic-Programmers/dp/1934356441">Amazon</a>.</p>
