Once one adopts the refactoring mindset, its lessons and approaches can also infuse new code aka "prefactoring". :) Ken Pugh wrote a 2005 book called " Prefactoring: Extreme Abstraction - Extreme Separation - Extreme Reliability 1st Edition", which won a 2006 Dr. Dobbs' Jolt award.

Did you also read "Refactoring to Patterns"? If so, could you compare that with Prefactoring ?
