No. Catalysis is an object oriented analysis and design method. It is
separate from the Coad book.

Tnere is some information on http://www.catalysis.org, but it doesn't seem
to clearly lay out the concepts.

I'd recommend reading some of the Catalysis book by 
Desmond D'Souza and Alan Wills: "Objects, Components, and Frameworks 
With Uml : The Catalysis Approach"

   http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0201310120

It is a large book.
