The Psychology of Quality and More

Here's How...

Syque (pronounced 'sike') is my knowledge sharing site. My purpose is to share knowledge and understanding on an unprecedented scale, adding real value for individuals and companies. Consider it as 'original books on the internet', with already over 7000 web pages of industrial-strength knowledge freely available.

The Syque sites are as follows:

The first book I wrote was called 'C: Style -- Standards and Guidelines' and was about how to write computer programs that people (including yourself) can understand. Although based in the C language, it covers many general principles. It is reproduced in its entirety here in about 200 hyperlinked pages.
