About the Author :
Richard W. Selby, PhD, is the Head of Software Products at Northrop Grumman Space Technology and an Adjunct Professor of Computer Science at the University of Southern California. He cowrote the international bestselling book Microsoft Secrets: How the World's Most Powerful Software Company Creates Technology, Shapes Markets, and Manages People.

Review :
"The fact that we still face basically the same problems in the areas of software architecture, reuse, and development with modern approaches (such as reliability and performance, as well as the software development process in service-oriented architectures) makes this book continue to be highly relevant.  This, and the sheer pleasure of reading it, makes the book a remarkable and extraordinary contribution to an otherwise buzzword-driven book market." (Computing Reviews, March 25, 2008)
