4.0 out of 5 stars A great repository for references on software development, 17 Feb 1998
By A Customer
This manual is more than simply a collection of maxims and homilies about software development. Although the bulk of the text is devoted to telling us things that we probably already know, its worth as a database of references almost eclipses the value of its own text. An invaluable bibliography, especially for students in this area.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent distillation. Absolutley no filler., 16 Jan 1998
By A Customer

Each principle is a sentence presented on single page followed by an explanation that is frequently only one paragraph long. This the book's virtue: it is written so well and its principles are so carefully chosen that this format delivers a surprising wealth of useful information.

In addition, the principles are intelligently cross referenced so that reading a single principle will allow the reader to easily discover several other important related ideas. The principles are also indexed in an excellent reference section at the end of book, which links the principles to the original sources.

Finally, it's worth mentioning that this is also an attractive book, a rarity and a blessing since it will likely remain on the bookshelf years after other books have lost their relevance.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nice little package of principles from analysis to delivery., 19 Dec 1995
By A Customer
As a student of Software Engineering, I wish my courses were based on the concepts in this book. The concepts aren't new, but it is the first time I've seen them bundled up in such a nice little package. Each page has a principle. And the sources for each principle are cited. I only spotted one mistake, the author confuses verification and validation.
