Meyer on Weinberg
Tuesday, December 3, 2002

Continuing to read The Pragmatic Programmer and enjoying it. To jog my memory, I skimmed the first chapter of The Psychology of Computer Programming. What a wonderful book that is. I see that much of The Psychology of Agile Software Development will imitate and grow out of Weiberg's book. I am reminded of Bertrand Meyer's words:

"The best way to create is by imitation, refinement and combination."

By combining Weinberg's Psychology, Cockburn's Agility, and White and Epston's Narrative, something novel may emerge.
