Does anyone have anything to say about this book? The reviews at Amazon look _very_ good. The book I recommend is "The Unified Software Development Process", it was required reading last year for software engineering. Btw, if you ever need books, go to bookpool.com, comparatively, books are anywhere from 5-15 dollars cheaper.
