Title: Common Sense sold as wisdom
Review: This book was quite a disappointment, especially since I heard so much about it. As Shakespeare said "There is nothing new under the sun" and this book proves it. It's really just putting fancy or cute titles (corncob!) on quite obvious, well-known software development problems. I don't think I saw a new or original thought in it except for the title. Having said all that, it might be a useful introduction to classic, well-known s/w problems for someone new in the field.
