The Architect’s Paradox
Uncertainty and the Philosophy of Software Architecture
How do we make decisions as software architects? How do we create the conceptual structures that drive our architectures? Most architects cannot even begin to answer this question. The Architect’s Paradox is an investigation of the underlying philosophical beliefs of software architects. The book compares the journey of ideas in software to the journey in Western philosophy and reveals the default philosophy that most architects aren’t even aware they carry with them. It then asks what we can do that’s different, that moves architect forward beyond traditional thinking.
This book provides many chances to think about your own architectural practice, how you think, how you relate your software to the real world. It also serves as an introduction to philosophy for software architects who want a relatable way to get started, with every thinker and idea linked to challenges of building software systems.
