A must read for Software development 
This is one of the key books to read for software development. This book provides the needed background for becoming a team lead/architect. The book is well written. I have had mine for years and I use it as a constant reference.

Excellent Book on the Software Development Process
"Rapid Development" is an excellent book that covers the software development process.
