Comprised of a collection of articles, some stripped from IEEE publications, some from other tech periodicals (even from the days of tech yore), and some written specially for the book, all pertaining to the subject of the section at hand, Software Management touches on just about ever facet of software management, including topics such as requirements management, project management, and my personal favorite, configuration management.
This is probably not the best book for learning software management, but it sure covers a wide range of topics. Perhaps this would be a good place to start, and the recommended reading section for the chapters that interest you would be better places to go.
Recommended as a smorgasbord for those interested in software management, but make sure your eyes are in good condition, as some of the articles have super tiny fontsizes! ( )
