This book is designed to help software engineers and project managers understand and solve problems involved in developing complex software systems. It provides guidelines and tools for managing the technical and organizational aspects of software engineering projects.
I wanted to read this book because I am a project manager with no computer science education and thought this book could give me a good framework: I was right. Tom Gilb builds upon some very practical suggestions an entire framework and mindset that will help me become, I hope, a better project manager.
