The Mythical Man Month: Essays on Software Engineering - Anniversary Edition
by Fredrick P. Brooks
This is a classic on the human elements of software engineering first published in 1975. The technology has changed a lot in this time, but the human elements of software engineering have remained the same. It is a wealth of insight, often quoted, and very well known in the industry. “The Mythical Man Month” describes many commonly occurring problems in large and mid-scale development projects and breaks them down. Here are a two of the book’s important principles:
The Mythical Man-Month: Adding manpower to a late software project makes it later.
No silver bullet: There is not a single strategy, technique, or trick that can exponentially raise the productivity of programmers.
I recommend this book not only for programmers, but for anyone managing a software project. Project managers and programmers alike will appreciate Brooks’ clear, well-thought out points.
人月神话：软件工程评述－周年版
这本论述软件工程中人的因素的经典著作出版于1975年。这些年来，技术已经发生了很大的变化，但是人的因素还是和原来一样让人头痛。这是一本有深刻洞察 力的书籍，也是一本在业界非常著名，常常被引用的书籍。《人月神话》概括了许多在大中型项目中经常遇到的，也是非常致命的问题。它提出了2条著名的准则：
人月神话：向一个已经延后的项目中投入更多的人力资源只会让它更延后
没有银弹：没有一种策略，技术或者技巧可以极大地提高程序员的生产力
我不仅向程序员推荐这本书，也想任何一个项目管理人员推荐这本书。项目经理和程序员都会喜欢布鲁克斯清楚而明晰的观点。
