Few books provide such a comprehensive treatment of professionalism in IT. Not only is there thorough coverage of professional issues, but these are set in a business context and wonderfully illustrated by numerous case studies. This book should be read [...] by everyone working in the industry. -- Professor Richard Millar * University of Ulster *
