Two books that I have read this month that could well be of interest to people reading this:

From Program to Product
Rocky Smolin
Quick Rating: 3.5 / 5
Summary: Nothing new here and some quite dull interviews but useful text regarding software development all conveniently located in one small book.




Dreaming In Code
Scott Rosenberg
Quick Rating: 4.5 / 5
Summary: Excellent book about the (still incomplete) Chandler project started by Mitch Kapor, http://chandlerproject.org/ Chapter 10 discusses software ‘engineering’ (or is it art?). Great stuff !
