Synopsis
The highly regarded textbook, Software Systems Development: A gentle introduction, provides a firm grounding in the principles of this topic in a clear, concise and lively form. The authors explain techniques and practices that are universally applicable to software systems development using a traditional structured approach, providing a solid background for aspiring software developers to build upon. This new edition has been thoroughly updated to develop coverage of topics such as SQL, agile methods and object-orientation. The authors' accessible, jargon-free approach to systems analysis and design is ideally suited to computer science students on an introductory course or to those from other disciplines with an interest in software development.

    My book arrived in good condition. Packaging was a rigid cardboard mailer, and it protected my book well. It was shipped in a reasonable amount of time, but I was still prompted to reach out to inquire further about it. Seller communication was very good, answering me within 24-hours. I was told shipping can take 9-15 days to happen... it arrived within 10 days after purchase. I would purchase from this seller again. Two thumbs up!

    Book arrived as described, packed inside a cardboard envelope which I like because it protects the corners from damage in transit. Great price and arrived ahead of the estimated delivery date. I value book sellers who package this way to ensure the books arrive safely, will bookmark you guys for future book purchases.
