Mythical Man-Month isn't trying to say "surgical teams work well - let's apply that approach to software". Instead, it's an analogy to explore Fred Brook's thoughts on 10x programmers and "building systems with as few minds as possible". Brook's attributes the idea to Harlan Mill's paper "Chief programmer teams, principles, and procedures" - which I can't find online, but I'd be curious how Mills treats the analogy. |
