Review by: Doug Pardee on March 15, 2010 : star star star star
Having spent decades in the software industry myself, I expected more in the way of amusing anecdotes and less of the straight-forward discussion of management techniques. The material isn't as dry as it could be, but I didn't find anything amusing, either.

Drop the "(A)" from the title and it'd be more accurate.
