Kent Beck's new book, Implementation Patterns, is a book about writing code in Java. The patterns in this book are based on Kent's reading of existing code as well as his own programming habits. These patterns are about developers communicating through code which is reminiscent of his earlier work on Smalltalk Patterns. They are lower level than design patterns and about the same granularity as Larman's GRASP patterns. The patterns in this book are meant to be a coherent view of how to write code people can understand that serves human as well as economic needs.
