  10. >(Addison-Wesley).  I believe that this book goes a long way of explaining

  15. As I am more on the quality side of things, I can't vouch for the amount of
  16. influence it has had on the design of the framework.  I can say that nearly
  17. everyone on the team has a copy on their bookshelf ;-).  It's a great book,
  18. even if you just read it for the pictures.
