Just Amazing, every busines student should read it
An important book; not Martin's Best, but essential reading
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
There is one quote in this book which alone makes it worth the price of purchase: "Most systems being developed today are the wrong systems." The book essentially explains why this is true and what to do about it. Anyone building enterprise systems needs to understand this concept and reckon with it. Ignore it at your own risk. While the book is not fun to read because it does not take this ball and run with it clearly and forcefully starting at the beginning and proceeding to the end, it illuminates the subject in important ways -- vital ways. Martin's mind operates at a higher speed and in different ways from the minds of most people ... and he is usually right. I'd be suspect of anyone claiming the capability to build systems today who does not understand the issues and concepts in this book. Buy it and read it, then read it again.
