"Few books in computing have had as profound an influence on software management as Peopleware. The unique insight of this longtime best seller is that the major issues of software development are human, not technical. Theyre not easy issues; but solve them, and youll maximize your chances of success."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 todays development environments and challenges. The book now discusses pathologies of leadership that hadnt 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."Features aria-hidden"true" style"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 0px; padding: 0px; border-width: 0px; border-style: initial; font-size: 16px; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"The legendary anti-Dilbert� book on managing software projects focusing on people - now fully updated for todays projects and methodologies Combines humor and wisdom to deliver timeless, practical advice every software manager and developer can use Updated and reorganized, with seven brand-new chapters Now addresses leadership, generational differences, distributed and diverse teams, managing risk, holding effective meetings, and using email the right way "Table of Content"margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; background-image: initial; background-color: white; vertical-align: baseline;"Preface xv"margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; background-image: initial; background-color: white; vertical-align: baseline; box-sizing: border-box;"About theAuthors xvii"margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; background-image: initial; background-color: white; vertical-align: baseline;"
