Thoughts from the office by Ed Ball
Monday, June 25, 2007

Dreaming in Code, by Scott Rosenberg, is an outstanding look at the software development process from the perspective of a well-funded medium-size open source project that has been in development since 2003. This book is compelling from beginning to end, trying to help even the non-technical reader understand why software development is so hard. The many difficulties faced by this development team were surprisingly (and sometimes disturbingly) familiar. Highly recommended for everyone in software, and anyone else who wants to understand our world a little bit better.

Hi Ed,

Glad to see some fresh reviews posted. I'd heard about "Dreaming in Code" on the 'Joel on Software' site, but it nice to see a review from someone I know more directly and trust.

Hope things are great at Logos.
