Smalltalk-80 obtains some of its expressive power from arranging classes in a hierarchy. Inheritance is an important aspect of this hierarchy. An alternative organization of classes is proposed that emphasizes description instead of inheritance. This alternative can be used with compile-time type checking and retains the important characteristics of Smalltalk's hierarchy.
