如果不想看那些自我感觉良好的鸡汤书，而是想要一份极其深入、透彻且痛感拉满的剖析，去读 Jaroslav Tulach 的《实用 API 设计》（Practical API Design）吧。没错，它是基于 Java 的，但它完美诠释了那些鸡汤书所忽视的根本权衡：你让 API 对用户来说越强大，它在未来演化和长期……的潜力就越小
For a very deep, thorough and painful treatment instead of feel-good books, read "Practical API Design" by Jaroslav Tulach. Yes, it's Java, but it exemplifies the fundamental tradeoff that the feel-good books ignore: the more powerful you make your API for users, the less potential for evolution and long-term…

……在 2 年里学到的模块化知识（好的和坏的），比搞 10 年绿地开发（从零开发）还要多（另外，我现在写一个能用的 Eclipse 插件的速度，比写一个同等功能的 Vim 函数还要快……）。我也推荐《实用 API 设计》（里面既有宏观的建议，也有关于源码兼容性与二进制兼容性的细微但至关重要的细节，其中有些方面我搞了几年开发都还一无所知……）
