Other books referenced in my book that I would recommend:

  • Assessment and Control of Software Risks by Capers Jones (discussion of key risks in successful implementation of software projects)
  • Design Patterns by Erich Gamma, Richard Helm, Ralph Johnson, and John Vlissides (the premier treatise on software design "patterns" by the Gang of Four - a must for a programmer's bookshelf)
