  1. Hello Derek, you have very nice concise list of books about software. You may add if you like “Clean Code and “Clean Coder” also “Design Patterns” (GangofFour but also Head First which in my opinion transfers the usefulness in comprehensive art and beauty for those who has missing parts, things they havent understood). Also “Refactoring to Patterns” is good read. Thanks

    1. Thanks for recommendations and I’ll add to the list. I also need to add a few I’ve read recently such as Lean Change Management. I’ve been meaning to read Refactoring to Patterns. I love how some of these 10 year old books still hold true today.
