Ed Yourdon on Agile
If you haven’t heard of him, or don’t believe me just look at the list of books he’s written.) Ed Yourdon seems to have fallen off my radar so far this century. Last century I read a lot of his stuff and came to respect him as a man who knows what he’s talking about when it comes to IT and software development. I recently discovered that he has a blog , and from there that he has recently been to the Agile 2010 conference. In fact it appears that the whole Agile thing has, to a large part, passed him by.

Off topic moan - Price Promise that isn't
It all began when I set out to book my flights to Agile Eastern Europe in October. Turns out British Airways had a direct flight, was fairly competitive and since they are my usual airline I decided to book with them. It wasn’t indeed it was more expensive, but since I was now logged into the BA system and all my details were on file I decided to finish the booking there. Except, I’ll never book with BA.com direct again. could try and justify the following story on the basis that it concerns my upcoming trip to Agile Eastern Europe. It also shows how I was fooled.

On Being Wrong
It reminded me of a book I wanted to read, but I never got past the book review. The blog The Wrong Stuff has some excellent interviews about how people deal with errors or mistakes. Basically, most experts are no better at predicting the future than a drunken monkey. This quote reminds me of why I hate talking to smart people: “Most people tend to dismiss new information that doesn’t fit with what they already believe. Smart people are better at rationalizing and defending their opinions no matter how inane. That doesn’t mean they aren’t useful.

Books for Agile and Object Oriented Design
Here is a list of the very best books I have found that helps bridge the divide between OOD and Agile for those of you who are currently making that transition. Tags: Books You often hear it stated by very bright people that they thought they understood object oriented design until they began practicing Test Driven Development (TDD). definitely include myself in that group (the misunderstanding OOD part anyway!). They are highly recommended. Agile Software Development, Principles, Patterns, and Practices. by Robert C. Martin. Refactoring: Improving the Design of Existing Code.

Book review: Minimalism Beyond the "Nurnberg Funnel" and thoughts on documentation
Still I think I may have read the wrong book, a better starting place for this subject would of been the authors first book on the subject The Nurnberg Funnel. Both books discuss the same concept, namely minimalism in technical documentation. However the newer book (Beyond) is not so much an introduction to the subject but a review of how the ideas had developed in 8 years. So I think the earlier book may have been a better starting position. Now, 9 years after the second book I assume things have moved on again. Anyway, get back to the book.

Looking for a C# Design Patterns book
I co-author developmentor's Code smarter with Design Patterns in.NET course with Kevin Jones, and ever since the creation of the course I've been on the look out for a good book to recommend to students. So my quest continues to find a good C# patterns book I can recommend for class The one I currently recommend is the excellent Head First Design Patterns, although the only rub is its in Java, but in terms of teaching patterns its awesome. recently decided to order the latest Design Patterns for C# v3.0 from OReilly written by Judith Bishop, and see if I could recommend that text.

Book review: Software Ecosystems
Software Ecosystem by Messerschmitt and Szyperski (2003) is a book that was recommended to me about a year ago, a book I bought about 9 months ago, and one I started reading about four months ago. The book is interesting, the book is useful, the book does offer some insights into the software industry, the business of software and how software effects our business. Yes I have learned things from this book. feel as though I should read this book, it talks about business, software and the business of software but it idn’t a gripping read.

Turns out books about Product Management are a little likes buses: None then 3 turn up at once! ve been looking for a good book on Product Management for a while so I was interested to see Tuned In by Craig Stull, Phil Myers and David Meerman Scott published. Turns out Luke has a book in the product management space too, its been out for a couple of years but somehow I’ve missed it. Finally, one of the Product Managers I’m working with just now leant me a copy of another book, Expert Product Management by Brian Lawley.
