Books for 'Software Engineering'

Following books are Recommended for Software Engineering:

1. Fundamentals of Software Engineering  by Rajib Mall
2. Roger Press Man Book
Steve McConnell (Code Complete: A Practical handbook of Software Construction)


- excellent chapters on architecture and design. 
Steve McConnell (Rapid Development)
Erich Gamma (Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable-Object -oriented Software)
Bruce Schneier
Robert C. Martin (Agile Software Dev.: Principles, Patterns and Practices
Joel Spolsky
Tom DeMarco, Timothy Lister (Peopleware: Productive Projects and Teams( 2nd Edition)
excellent book about the people side of developing software. It explores principles of organisation, motivation, environment and other stuff which is applicable well beyond programming.

Frederick P. Brooks (The Mythical Man-Month)


More of historical interest, although still somtimes surprisingly actual.  The classic book on the human elements of software engineering. Software tools and development environments may have changed in the 21 years since the first edition of this book, but the peculiarly nonlinear economies of scale in collaborative work and the nature of individuals and groups has not changed an epsilon. If you write code or depend upon those who do, get this book as soon as possible.
