Summary Jim Coplien believes that we have done OOP the wrong way for 40 years, and suggests an approach to reflection based on the DCI paradigm and influenced by the human society.

Bio Jim ("Cope") Coplien is the father of Organizational Patterns and one of the founders of the Software Pattern discipline, a pioneer in practical OO design in the early 1990s and is a widely consulted authority, author, and trainer in the areas of software design and organizational improvements. With Trygve Reenskaug he is a co-originator of the Data, Context and Interaction (DCI) paradigm.
