Essentials of Software Engineering - Frank Tsui - Bog

"The basic concepts and theories of software engineering have stabilized considerably from the early days of thirty to forty years ago. Nevertheless, the technology and tools continue to evolve, expand and improve every four to five years. In this fifth edition, we will cover some of these newly established improvements in technology and tools but reduce some areas, such as process assessment models, that is becoming less relevant today.
