I was interested to see this book mentioned on this list because the concept of patterns has 
spawned a very large literature in the software developer community, to the extent that it 
would be difficult to read many software "recipes" without some knowledge of the common 
patterns.

Which makes me wonder: is there a good place to look for IA patterns?
