Productive Objects: An Applied Software Project Management Framework Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is an odd book.The author attempts to explain OO development management by creating an object model of the concepts within the development process.It is an intriguing idea, but it doesn't work.The object model provides no insight that I can see to the development process, and it makes it painful to read, even when he is explaining simple situations. The one valuable part is the detailed review of other process methods (e.g. SEI's).But that alone was not worth the price, at least for this reader.
