The Mythical Man-Month

Comments:

Though written and first published some twenty years ago, this classic continues to be read and referenced extensively by those in the field. Brooks make some insightful, and sometimes counter-intuitive, observations about what makes software-engineering difficult and how one might think about managing a large software engineering project. The 20-th anniversary edition linked here contains some updated material and new essays that did not appear in the original edition of this book.
