Domain-Driven Design: Tackling Complexity in the Heart of Software

From the Foreword by Martin Fowler

"The key to controlling complexity is a good domain model, a model that goes beyond a surface vision of a domain by introducing an underlying structure, which gives the software developers the leverage they need. A good domain model can be incredibly valuable, but it’s not something that’s easy to make. Few people can do it well, and it’s very hard to teach.

Eric Evans is one of those few who can create domain models well. I discovered this by working with him—one of those wonderful times when you find a client who’s more skilled than you are. Our collaboration was short but enormous fun. Since then we’ve stayed in touch, and I’ve watched this book gestate slowly.

It’s been well worth the wait."
