The new edition represents a major restructuring and update of previous editions, solidifying the book's position as the most comprehensive guide to this important subject. The chapter structure will return to a more linear presentation of software engineering topics with a direct emphasis on the major activities that are part of a generic software process. Content will focus on widely used software engineering methods and will de-emphasize or completely eliminate discussion of secondary methods, tools and techniques. The intent is to provide a more targeted, prescriptive, and focused approach, while attempting to maintain SEPA's reputation as a comprehensive guide to software engineering. The 39 chapters of this edition are organized into five parts - Process, Modeling, Quality Management, Managing Software Projects, and Advanced Topics. The book has been revised and restructured to improve pedagogical flow and emphasize new and important software engineering processes and practices. McGraw-Hill's Connect, is also available as an optional, add on item. Connect is the only integrated learning system that empowers students by continuously adapting to deliver precisely what they need, when they need it, how they need it, so that class time is more effective. Connect allows the professor to assign homework, quizzes, and tests easily and automatically grades and records the scores of the student's work. Problems are randomized to prevent sharing of answers an may also have a "multi-step solution" which helps move the students' learning along if they experience difficulty. Review: Great book well explained concepts! - As a finance/math major working in IT - this book is an eye opener! First of all, you don't need to be an engineer to read through this book - you only need an open mind! The author is great at explaining the high level workings of most Software engineering concepts before taking a deeper dive - very beneficial for people who understand and learn by knowing the full picture. This book is easy to read and builds in complexity as you work through it. It is helpful to bring up as a credible reference source. I would not recommend reading this book cover to cover - just read portions that are most relevant to the work at hand - it is very tedious if you are just reading to learn but have no motivation or interest behind it. I have already recommended this book to friends! Review: Really like the updated edition! - I rented the 7th edition for fall 2013. I thought it was a good book at the time even though there were some concepts that didn't seem applicable anymore. So far from reading the 8th edition, through chapter 4, I'm very excited to continue reading the updated material for this class I'm about to start fall 2014. I'm particularly interested in the new organization including mobile application development. ## Features - McGraw-Hill Science Engineering Math ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 63 Reviews | ## Images ![Software Engineering: A Practitioner's Approach (IRWIN COMPUTER SCIENCE) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61JuC+epPFL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book well explained concepts! *by T***K on 21 November 2015* As a finance/math major working in IT - this book is an eye opener!
