It's not easy, and at times a little boring, but overall a great book. Yes, I need to read Alexander's books -- he started the whole patterns movement. Thanks for the reply.

I was a little disappointed to see the whole bowling game episode in there, only because I'd already read it online. _The Timeless Way of Building_ is great, as it _A Pattern Language_ by Alexander et al. If you are at all interested in architecture or good design _Pattern Language_ is a really engaging. Also check out his newer trilogy the _Nature of Order_. I've only skimmed through it at the store but its kind of his unified theory of design, regardless of context. I’m working through Martin’s Agile book, and it seems really good so far.
