Rezensionen

"Although the book is targeted at teams and managers, a one-man shop can still benefit from the practices. Each and every developer eventually accumulates bad habits-and this book is probably the best way to show you what you are doing wrong and how you can improve your development process. The authors managed to create a very readable book, the text is well formulated and easy to understand." -- TamsPalm Blog, Juni 2006
