Jim Highsmith tackles the evolution and revolution of software development embellishes them with personal experiences from the Apollo moon mission to modern digital transformations and introduces the adventurous pioneers--from structured era developer Ken Orr to Agile methodologist Kent Beck--who strived to make the world a better place by building better software.
