Why The Mythical Man-Month is Still Recommended Today

Still as relevant today as it was 40 years ago

“Brooks lays out a formalism to how to approach [people and process problems] that let teams deliver on the technology, a formalism that is as relevant now as it was 40 years ago, and I suspect, 40 years (or 400, if we are still around then) in the future as well.” —Michael McIntyre, Silently Failing blog

It’s a cautionary tale

“It has been almost 50 years since this book was published and we are still making the same mistakes while managing software projects. This cautionary tale should be read at least once by all engineers.” —Tomas Fernandez, Siemaphore blog

Gets software engineers to the next level

“In my opinion, understanding the art of programming systems product is one of many steps taking a good software engineer to the next level. The Mythical Man-Month was first published many years ago and still the perfect book for this topic…I thought it was no longer relevant in the age of Agile and Continuous Delivery at first, but I could not be more wrong.” —Kaga.Dev
