In this classic book the authors demonstrate the major human - not technical - issues of
software development and give challenging but successful answers to the questions of software
managers and developers. For this third edition the authors have added six new chapters and
updated the text throughout bringing it in line with today's development environments and
challenges. The book now discusses pathologies of leadership that hadn't previously been judged
to be pathological an evolving culture of meetings hybrid teams made up of people from
seemingly incompatible generations and a growing awareness that some of our most common tools
are more like anchors than propellers. Anyone who needs to manage a software project or
software organization will find invaluable advice throughout the book.
