I didn't like it!
|
I am currently studying my Masters in IT, with the speciality of Software Engineering. Since I study online, this is the textbook provided to us as our reference to do our reading. I thought - from the book's title - that I had the perfect book!
With all due respect to the author (Ian Sommerville), I did not like it. It was nicely divided into 3 appropriate sections, but many of its chapters referred to examples and explanations in later (or even previous) chapters. I read alot of "more on this in chapter **" or "the example in figure x.ii" (when we are reading in later chapters). Many of my colleagues also complained about the book. I had to go back and forth between the chapters to understand what is being said (after having read each paragraph a couple of times). That is besides the examples not being too informative. Alot of times, I had to research the topic and examples online. I had read a few online papers by Ian Sommerville, and I believe he could've written the book much better!
