What can anyone tell me about this man's thought?

He is an architect. I came upon references to him in pages about
"Patterns" in software engineering (See
http://c2.org/cgi/wiki?WelcomeVisitors - which is itself an interesting,
self-organising web-site).

See the web page about him at:
http://www.math.utsa.edu/sphere/salingar/Chris.text.html

He is about to publish a 4 volume book with the OUP, "The nature of
order":
