Kevlin Henney

Kevlin Henney is an independent consultant, trainer, speaker and writer. His development interests and work with companies covers programming, practice and people. He has contributed to open- and closed-source codebases (sometimes unintentionally), been a columnist for a number of magazines and sites and has been on far too many committees (it has been said that "a committee is a cul-de-sac down which ideas are lured and then quietly strangled"). He is co-author of two volumes in the Pattern-Oriented Software Architecture series, editor of 97 Things Every Programmer Should Know and co-editor of 97 Things Every Java Programmer Should Know.
