Title: Stumbling on prophecies
Review: How about that! I spent money in the amount of two scholarships to buy this book and all i got is a tutorial on how to please your boss and the customers! As i am still a student looking for enlightment on this subject i thought Jack Ganssle's book could take me there. No doubt it has valuable information, but that is spreaded across almost 250 pages like marbles on ice(could be resumed in a few pages of tips and tricks). If i wanted "filosofia" i would have read Nietzsche, if i wanted literature i would have read Miller. But i was looking for embedded systems design and i got almost nothing! Obsessing about the fact that "every idiot can write code" is not much of an "art". Very poor on examples, too much of "this thing should be done this way or else ...", lots of statistics and no fun!He might be a good engineer but he is a poor teacher!Don't buy this book unless you have Liberia's defficit in your account!
