TOGAF is NOT an EA Framework

So, why did I decide to compile this book.I believe that TOGAF has done more to damage the EA "profession" (such as it isn't!) than anything else in the world, and that the EA "profession" would be in a much better place today if TOGAF had never existed.There are two main confusions that exist with regards to peoples (practitioners and management) understanding of EA. Most people (90% perhaps) think that "it's all about IT". Most people (90% perhaps) think that its all about running (mostly large) IT projects. And the reason for this mass misunderstanding is because this is what TOGAF tends to push. People are told that TOGAF is an EA framework by the confused majority and so new people believe it to, which of course, adds to the majority thinking and saying the same wrong things. These fundamental misunderstandings have to be tackled if an EA profession is to exist. I compiled this book to start a proper debate on the subject and also to allow people to realise that there is a choice out there between which EA frameworks they can use and who they talk to that may have different ideas to The Open Group. Why have so many people been on TOGAF training courses? I believe that everyone goes on TOGAF courses for 2 main reasons: Because everyone else goes on TOGAF courses. (The herd mentality is strong and Nobody ever got fired for - hiring IBM / sending people on a TOGAF training course) Because people do not know there is a choice. The market is saturated with companies and individuals selling TOGAF training courses (a google search of "+TOGAF +Training" returns over 400, 000 results) and this saturation feed point 1 above.
