We are casting our net as wide as possible for sources of inspiration and thought to inform our development of d3. The Agile Manifesto is, of course, a great inspiration. But if you are only beginning to learn about agile, you’ll probably just scratch your head and squint your eyes looking at that web page.
We have found inspiration in a number of books about agile processes. Don’t hesitate to dig in to the nearest book you can find.
On the subject of dialogue in particular, we are gaining a lot of insight by trying to digest these books:
- On Dialogue by David Bohm (Routledge Classics 1996)
- Dialogue and the Art of Thinking Together: A Pioneering Approach to Communicating in Business and in Life by William Isaacs (Currency 1999)
The following are a collection of articles on the subject:
- Principles of d3: Simplicity, by Brian Ford
