5.0 out of 5 stars
The 1999 Software Developer's Guide,
This review is from: The 1999 Software Developer's Guide (Paperback)
Since there's no blurb under the title, I'll start with what's on the back cover: "Programming is 90% of the job. But it's the surrounding part--selling, writing specs, designing, estimating, coordinating the coding, finding employees, training them, testing (and retesting), tracking employees activities, ... getting paid, ongoing maintenance--these take the other 90% of the time. And that second 90% of the time is the subject of this book."Anyway, this is an amusing and irreverent collection of war stories and insights from a programmer who is building a software factory from scratch. He started programming in 1982 with Foxpro and is still developing. So Whil outlines how to turn programming into manufactoring, and how to deal with customers and employees, etc. The book is put out by Hentzenwerke Publishing and is (as of 7/7/00) out of print; however, the next edition will be out later this year and if you send money you will get an e-book until the paper one is published. All in all, a delightful informative read from a wise and humorous veteran programmer/consultant/businessman.
