Review :
A remarkable book that provides a unique perspective on modern software development. A distinctive and unusual feature is the way modern software development principles are explained holistically in terms of all project activities. The focus on key employment skills and knowledge also makes it a must read for aspiring developers. I wish this book was around when I was starting out 30 years ago. It’s a manual for all aspects of software development and the scope of the role in business, rather than focusing on being a ‘coder’. I particularly like the fact it includes client aspects, which are usually forgotten! As a leader of many software development teams, this book will be indispensable to modern developers and managers alike. It will not teach you how to write .NET, but will help when someone who does tries to bamboozle you with jargon. It is brilliantly written and easy to digest. A comprehensive, practical overview of what awaits you in the real world of professional software development. Software Development in Practice takes the guesswork out of your journey into tech. From term definitions, Agile practices and clean code tips, this book is my go-to resource for anyone breaking into the tech industry. I especially appreciate the emphasis on communication, collaboration and user experience. There are many books which describe various technical and theoretical aspects of software development. However, few describe what’s actually involved in day-to-day software development. This book is one of those few and should be of real interest to prospective and early-career software developers. As a security researcher and advocate for embedding security in the software development process, it is enlightening to see this book dedicate some detailed coverage to consider use of defensive coding techniques, GDPR from a developers point of view and looking at specific vulnerabilities and associated mitigations taken direct from the OWASP Top10. A great book for both those thinking of working or progressing in the commercial software development industry. The book gives insight into working practices, identifying positives and negatives to each of them. Deliberately avoiding specific programming languages (other than to explain some points), the book will be a perfect addition for any dev team in any development environment. This book provides the framework to apply knowledge of how to code into the real world of being a software developer. It is the theory and thought processes that you can’t learn without doing the job first - until now! If you’re considering a career path in software development this book should be the first port of call on your journey. If you want a guide on what you need to do to become a fantastic software developer, then this book is for you. The book’s in-depth topic coverage will provide you with all the tools and information you will need to succeed in the software development Industry. IT now permeates almost every area of business, in an environment where the pace is ever increasing it is essential for those aspiring to work as a software developer to gain knowledge, skills and experience in many areas. Software Development in Practice covers the areas to master to become a productive member of a software development team.
