About
The classic, tour-de-force course on agile software development brought up to date with the backstories from the time and reflections on what is still relevant, from the original author and world-renowned agile manifesto co-author Dr. Alistair Cockburn.
That course in 1994 contained all the key concepts used in today's software development world: object-oriented design, incremental development, use cases and modern project management.
Now, Dr. Cockburn reflects on the course content:
• What were the backstories behind the ideas then becoming mainstream?
• What does he think of them now, almost 30 years later?
These are fresh, unique, and never-before-published thoughts.
This book offers a rare glimpse into a moment in time where the standards and practices of object technology were being chartered by the leaders of the day. It brings that up to date with the commentary on backstories and current thoughts.
Readers who already know the concepts will enjoy seeing how they were presented, will enjoy the backstories, and can compare their thoughts on his modern reflections. Newcomers will learn subtleties of techniques they may only have heard of. Everyone will enjoy the depth and liveliness of this remarkable course brought up to date.
