Classic Frederick Brooks Jr. Texts are clear and convincing. Discussion of how design is done was interesting and challenged my assumptions without questioning my intelligence. Well worth the time to read. That said, the chapters/essays were a bit short. And the book wandered into areas of design that were detailed, complex, and unfamiliar to me, and thus far from convincing or compelling.

I bought this as a textbook for a Systems Analysis class, but it looked so interesting that I read the first 11 chapters this summer before I even got to school. The Design of Design doesn't feel like a typical textbook at all, and Frederick Brooks makes every subject he writes on very interesting and relevant. I can't wait to read more of this book and get to apply what I've read in it.
