Superdistribution (Brad Cox) - book review (461 words)
Cox sees a fundamental difference between the efficiency of modern industrial manufacturing and the failures of the software "industry".
(Cox uses the introduction of standardised parts into weapons built for the United States military as an example.) With software this means a focus on re-usable software components and a shift from a process-centric approach to a product-centric one.
However much you credit Cox's diagnosis of the ailment afflicting the software industry and his suggestions for a cure, if you are interested in the future of the information economy then Superdistribution is worth a look.
