+1, but I think it's important to say that The Design of Design was published 35 years after The Mythical Man-Month and 23 years after No Silver Bullet. A careful reader will allow for some evolution and not apply statements from TDoD directly to NSB.

@Caleb I will add that note, but The Design of Design is a collection of essays. I didn't see a publication date (or any indication of the date that they were first written) for the essays that I'm explicitly referring to.
