I read this book in my MSRE - found it to be uninsightful at best. Essentially says - go work for a developer because RE is capital intensive then runs through a laundry list of obvious "steps" for development. Author gives thanks to his students for 'assistance' in writing this text. Appears they did most of the 'heavy lifting'. Boilerplate, padded, and uninspiring. My opinion. Don't waste your money.
