Bio:
Adam combines degrees in engineering and psychology to get a different perspective on the cognitive and social challenges of software. In his day job as a software consultant Adam works as an architect and programmer. While he often gets paid to code in C#, Java and Python, he's more likely to hack Clojure or Erlang in his spare time. Adam has published an open-source library for building distributed Erlang nodes in C++. He's the author of the popular Lisp for the Web tutorial, has written a book on Patterns in C and is currently writing on Code as a Crime Scene, an interdisciplinary look at software development from a psychological point of view. Other interests include modern history, music and martial arts.
