San Diego, CA – Mar 9, 2026 – Author Sergey Nosov announced today the completion of Software Development Principles, a six-book series that presents 492 principles, patterns, and practices of software engineering in a structured, language-agnostic reference format. All six books are now available in paperback and Kindle editions on Amazon worldwide.
The series distills fundamental and advanced software engineering knowledge into a consistent format. Every principle includes a clear explanation, warning signs that reveal violations, and markers that confirm correct application. The content is language-agnostic and framework-independent, written for software engineers at every experience level.
The six books are organized thematically, with each book standing alone and readable in any order:
Design Foundations: Core Principles and Object-Oriented Patterns (79 principles) covers SOLID, DRY, KISS, YAGNI, dependency management, contracts, correctness, code clarity, and the complete Gang of Four catalog.
Architecture and Data: System Structure, Domain Modeling, and Persistence (68 principles) covers architectural patterns, domain-driven design, and data management including event sourcing and CQRS.
Distributed Systems: Communication, Integration, and Service Design (82 principles) covers consensus, consistency, messaging and integration patterns, API design, and microservices architecture.
Quality and Protection: Resilience, Security, and Testing (75 principles) covers fault tolerance patterns, security principles, and testing methodologies from unit testing to chaos engineering.
Execution and Delivery: Concurrency, Deployment, and Runtime Behavior (89 principles) covers parallel processing, CI/CD, deployment strategies, observability, and operational patterns.
Craft and Wisdom: Professional Practice and Engineering Judgment (99 principles) covers team practices, empirical laws of software engineering, anti-patterns, code quality, and strategic decision-making.
The paperback editions were published between February 15 and February 25, 2026. Kindle editions followed between March 3 and March 9, 2026. All Kindle editions are enrolled in Kindle Unlimited.
