OVM has recently suffered from the lack of a good, up-to-date textbook. So it's good news to see that UVM now has a great textbook written by the verification experts at Cadence.   A Practical Guide to Adopting the Universal Verification Methodology (UVM) is both a valuable reference for novices and an impressive treasury of verification knowledge for experts.  It's also pitched at a good price for a technical textbook. Having had a sneak preview of the contents, I recommend you rush out and buy a copy before the first print run sells out - which it will do, fast.  We hope to bring you a in-depth review of this book as soon as they start shipping.
