 Hi Arthur and Jim --

I do follow Martin Fowler publications for more than a decade now. I especially like the classics IT book her coauthored:

" Refactoring: Improving the Design of Existing Code"

http://www.amazon.com/Refactoring-Improving-Design-Existing-Code/dp/0201485672

This is in my opinion one of the books serving as a foundation of the modern (Agile) software development tools and practices.

I have another his book " Patterns of Enterprise Application Architecture " ( http://www.amazon.com/Patterns-Enterprise-Application-Architecture-Martin/dp/0321127420   http://www.martinfowler.com/books/eaa.html ), which I use sometimes as a reference ( http://martinfowler.com/eaaCatalog/index.html )

And this  link  http://martinfowler.com/design.html  is currently constantly open in my one of my browser tabs.
