4.0 out of 5 stars Good Introduction With Broad Coverage, March 1, 2000

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Handbook of Systems Development, 1999 edition (Hardcover)
I'm a practicing database and system engineer. In this book, "system" means application software and databases. Technical material favors the PC world over UNIX.

Book has 61 articles in 12 sections: Management & Planning; Development Strategies; Tools, Tips, & Practices; Programming Techniques; Database Functionality & Design; Operating Platforms; Networking & Connectivity; Testing S/W Applications; Quality & Productivity Initiatives; Leveraging Staff Resources; Supporting Existing Software; Postdevelopment Administration.

Useful index. With this many topics in one volume, each article is necessarily shallow. About 1/4 of contributors are from academia. Most contributors are from the US. I had never heard the names of any contributors before reading the book.
