1. Peopleware: Productive Projects and Teams Peopleware: Productive Projects and Teams
from Dorset House

Customer Review:
Much of this book is spent explaining what should be obvious to the best managers, but which corporate culture and priorities tend to work against. In general, the book looks more at typical mistakes than at recipes for success. At the same time, the advice is solid and they often provide data to... more info

from Broadway
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
Look around, do you notice how certain people get work done (and done well), hit deadlines and still have time to chat at the water cooler. These are the most valued people in any organisation. The 20% people out of the 20/70/10 rule, when given 'slack', over produce, everytime. This book explains... more info

from Dorset House
Price: $32.35

Customer Review:
The title and cover caught my eye (today!) in the bookstore and after flipping through, I couldn't wait to get home and blow through it.
It's clear why this is getting a 5-star average here @ Amazon. Written by the same folks who authored Peopleware (classic skilled-person management book), it... more info

4. The Deadline: A Novel About Project Management The Deadline: A Novel About Project Management
from Dorset House Publishing Company, Incorporated
Price: $22.45

Customer Review:
Excellent book described in much detail by the other reviewers. I thought about giving it 4 stars since it is a little dated on current CMM status but I think that would have been a disservice.
Thanks Tom DeMarco for another great title. Check out Mr. DeMarco's other titles including... more info

5. Waltzing With Bears: Managing Risk on Software Projects Waltzing With Bears: Managing Risk on Software Projects
from Dorset House Publishing Company, Incorporated
Price: $25.15

Customer Review:
In less than 200 pages, Tom DeMarco and Timothy Lister manage to put together a very well-written text on risk management that vastly outshines other books of the same genre that are many times its size. Much of the ground that the authors cover in this work can be categorized as how to integrate... more info

from developer.* Books
Price: $25.54

Customer Review:
I picked up this book due to Steve McConnell's glowing review. After a chapter in I was disappointed, but it only got better as I read on.
Steve McConnell's original Amazon review does an excellent job at summing this book up.

from Prentice Hall

Customer Review:
I first read this book when it was new, and it made a world of difference in my results. In addition, I was introduced to distributed system design and finite state machines at about the same time, and that turned out to be a genuine winning combination.
Some of the difficulties of Demarco's... more info

I first read the Deadline and then this book. And this should be the order in which you read these books.

10. Dark Harbor House Dark Harbor House
from Down East Books
Price: $14.95

Customer Review:
Many novels are about people with a past, but in this case the main character is a house with a past. Not only has the house been the host of many unusual circumstances and characters, but it is also past its prime and has fallen into disrepair, although still heavily inhabited. While the past is... more info
