Rating: Summary: Antiqued Review: I think this book has a point that another book doesn't have. But, simply put, I feel difficult to understand the point.Unfortunately, this book is too old. The examples that the authors show seems rather unfamiliar for me. I don't know about COBOL or Fortran. As well, I don't know theories or situations at that time when the book was published. Hence, I don't understand those and those problems.
Rating: Summary: Not just for software Review: The idea that many situations have overlapping problem & solution domains is immensely valuable. Using some of the ideas in other situations, especially with young people, has generated better solutions than I ever imagined possible. Give a copy to your favorite school teacher or city government official -- with the obvious caveat of course.
Rating: Summary: An excellent overview of software development methods Review: This is an excellent overview of what software development processes folks are using, and how they are similar to or different from each other. It has pointers to additional information on each method. Now I can easily recognize what method or partial methods a project is using, and better predict what its weak points are going to be. I only wish I had read this book first. Authors, please publish an updated version including more recent methods like extreme programming!
