Product Description

Product Description
Since the release of the bestselling title Joel on Software in 2004, requests for a sequel have been relentless. So, we went back to the famed JoelonSoftware.com archives and pulled out a new batch of favorites, many of which have been downloaded over one million times. With Joel’s newest book, More Joel on Software, you’ll get an even better (not to mention updated) feast of Joel’s opinions and impressions on software development, software design, running a software business, and so much more. This is a new selection of essays from the author’s web site, http://www.joelonsoftware.com.

2.0 out of 5 stars A disappointing book from an author I generally enjoy reading., 21 Sep 2008
I've found his writing in the past to be interesting and thought provoking: I don't necessarily agree with all of what he says but it's always worth reading. I was well aware that, in common with all his previous books, this would be a dead-tree version of Joel's blog and various articles he's published on his web site

However what I didn't expect was that
- 40% would be a re-print of his immediately previous book, "Smart and gets things done",
- 20% self advertising or advertising for his company (the fact he's setup and runs a successful boutique web business adds to his credibility but outright repeated advertising in a paid-for book isn't acceptable).
- 20% newbies economic theory (hey Joel if I wanted an lesson in economics I don't think I'd buy one from you).

And only 10% is actually new and pertinent content.

A huge disappointment.

4.0 out of 5 stars Depends if you read the first book, 4 Feb 2009
I enjoyed the first Joel on Software book when I read it 18 months ago. Reading the 2nd book was quite heavy on the deja vu but enjoyable none the less.

If you haven't read the first book then rate this as 4 stars. If you have read the first book I would give this 2 stars.

I think the best thing to do is buy one of the books and borrow the other.
