Epistemic Troubleshooting and Debugging (Part 1)
Paraphrasing “Knowing about knowing about knowing” (Side-box 0.1, Consciousness, David Rose) as “Knowing about knowing about problem solving”, I would suggest the following references to raise the level of awareness from meta-troubleshooting and meta-debugging, the subject of various general purpose debugging books to the next epistemic level. I’m currently reading the following books and let you know about my progress along the journey:
Toward a Unified Theory of Problem Solving: Views From the Content Domains
The Psychology of Problem Solving
The Cambridge Handbook of Expertise and Expert Performance
