Refactoring Your Wetware

Andy Hunt  
The Pragmatic
Bookshelf  

 

Software development happens in your head; not in an editor, IDE, or Design tool.  We're well educated on how to work with software and hardware, but what about wetware -- our own brains?

 

Join Andy Hunt for a look at how the brain really works (hint: it's a dual-processor, shared bus design) and how to use the best tool for the job by learning to think differently about thinking.
