"addition, even if counter-intuitively, the act of describing the problem in its entirety often leads to finding of the solution, so much so that many development groups require “stuck” developers to perform this task, either by discussing it with a colleague or talking to a “naıve” entity, like a rubber duck or Mr. Potato-Head"

seems like it should read either "in its entirety often leads to the finding of the solution" or "in its entirety often leads to finding the solution"

Page 59 in the 1st full paragraph on that page -
"Verifying that the preconditions have been met is good exercise in the searching for an answer, for a violation of the preconditions is definitely a problem that needs solving – even if it is not the root cause of the original problem."

"is good exercise in the searching for an answer" should probably be "is good exercise searching for an answer" or "is a good exercise in the searching for an answer"

Page 61, 2nd paragraph, last sentence -
"That is an indication that the experience and behavior has set in so well that no conscious effort is required to access those skills"
