I think Fowler is highly over rated. He has brought far more complexity into the software development space then good solutions. When his book UML distilled came out it was highly regarded as one of the worst books on UML, but with persistence comes fame and fortune. And now his book is popular and so are his ideas. But in reality, he has single handedly doubled the amount of information a developer has to have to be marketable.
