Abstract
A graphical, functional query language, called Tabletalk, which can be used for a variety of object-oriented data models is described. Tabletalk expresses queries as mosaics, where spatial juxtaposition encodes the application of the functional combinators. Tabletalk is presented as a user-oriented and generic interface for object-oriented data models
