Software Craftsmanship, Wikipedia, explains how it is that many of us are exploring patterns of thinking, learning, and doing and writing them up as a handbook.
Apprenticeship Patterns by Dave H. Hoover and Adewale Oshineye is the book I am presently using in one of my classes, and this link takes you to an interview with one of the authors.
The Timeless Way of Building, Christopher Alexander, is the book that first worked out the pattern approach (in the field of architecture).
Design Patterns, by the “Gang of Four”, is the great work applying the pattern approach to software design.
The Reflective Practitioner by Donald A. Schön describes the architecture studio at MIT that I became familiar with in my year as a staff assistant there in 1975, and in particular, where I got to know Maurice Smith, who I believe is the professor Schön describes.
John Seely Brown Lecture on Learning in the Digital Age, offers a sophisticated model of collaborative work on the web that I believe has been developed directly on Donald A. Schön’s work (and discussed in more detail by Brown and Duguid in “The Social Life of Information”): this is the model I am presently developing at the HWR.
The Craftsman, Richard Sennett, is a more philosophical discussion by the famous sociologist in dialogue with his great teacher, Hannah Arendt.
The Creative Habit: Learn It and Use It for Life, Twyla Tharp. The famous dancer and her editor offer a practical guide to the furthering of listening, learning, memory, discipline, courage, etc., that while nominally based in dance and choreography readily applies to professional training more generally. A more phenomenological account offering the wisdom of the skilled practitioner.
