Title: A must-read classic
Review: I have done software development and systems design for 30 years now, and if I had to pick the 5 best books this book would be one of them.The principles that it contains, based on the original work by Yourdon and Constantine, are still valid today, no matter how different software development is now, compared to 30 years ago. Sure, "Structured Systems Design" by Yourdon and Constatine may be more complete, but this one is much more readable, so if you have to choose one I suggest to read this.One last (and sad) observation is that in so many years I have met very few programmers who had read this book, or even who had any knowledge of basic concepts like coupling and cohesion.
