''The Tao of Programming'' is a book written in 1987 by Geoffrey James. Written in a tongue-in-cheek style spoof of classic Taoist texts such as the ''Tao Te Ching'' and ''Zhuangzi'' which belies its serious message. ''The Tao of Programming'' consists of a series of short anecdotes divided into nine "books": * ''The Silent Void'' * ''The Ancient Masters'' * ''Design'' * ''Coding'' * ''Maintenance'' * ''Management'' * ''Corporate Wisdom'' * ''Hardware and Software'' * ''Epilogue'' The themes of the book espouse many hacker ideals – managers should leave programmers to their work; code should be small, elegant, and maintainable; corporate wisdom is more often than not an oxymoron; and so on. Geoffrey James wrote two more books like ''The Tao of Programming'' -- ''The Zen of Programming'' in 1988 and ''Computer Parables: Enlightenment in the Information Age'' in 1989. ==See also== * Hacker koan 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Tao of Programming」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
