书籍简介：

Joel, Apress, Blogs, and Blooks …I was learning the hard way about how to be a publisher and probably spending way too much time looking at web sites and programming than I should have in response to that. Anyway, one day I came across this web site called , which was run by a guy with strong opinions and an unusual, clever writing style, along with a willingness to take on the conventional wisdom. In particular, he was writing this ongoing series about how bad most user interfaces were–mostly because programmers by and large knew, as Joel and I would say, using the same Yiddish–derived NYC vernacular that we both share, "bupkis" about what users really want. And I, like many, was hooked both by the series and the occasional random essay that Joel wrote. And then I had this epiphany: I'm a publisher, I like reading his stuff, why not turn it into a book?…Read the complete Foreword — Gary Cornell, Cofounder, Apress Since the release of the bestselling title Joel on Software in 2004, requests for a sequel have been relentless. So, we went back to the famed JoelonSoftware.com archives and pulled out a new batch of favorites, many of which have been downloaded over one million times. With Joel's newest book, More Joel on Software, you'll get an even better (not to mention updated) feast of Joel's opinions and impressions on software development, software design, running a software business, and so much more. This is a new selection of essays from the author's web site, http://www.joelonsoftware.com. Joel Spolsky started his weblog in March 2000 in order to offer his insights, based on years of experience, on how to improve the world of programming. This weblog has become infamous among the programming world, and is linked to more than 600 other web sites and translated into 30+ languages! Spolsky's extraordinary writing skills, technical knowledge, and caustic wit have made him a programming guru. With the success of Joel on Software, there has been a strong demand for additional gems and advice, and this book is the answer to those requests. Containing a collection of all–new articles from the original, More Joel on Software has even more of an edge than the original, and the tips for running a business or managing people have far broader application than the software industry. We feel it is safe to say that this is the most useful book you will buy this year. What you'll learn * The best approaches to managing and hiring extraordinary people * Advice for those interested in the software industry as a career and for managers who want to get them * Joel's unique impressions of how to create products and design–good and bad * An "in the trenches" look at how to start and run an effective software business (or any business for that matter) * A true sense of what it takes to create a differentiated, unique, motivated organization Who this book is for Anyone interested in the software business will truly enjoy this book, but in particular this should be required reading for managers of technical businesses.

书友短评：

@ Tomato 可能我还是更偏爱纯技术层面的东西吧 … @ Chung-Wan 1）in software industry,Identity management is superior to Command-and-Control, and ECON101 management method; 2）全是行业经验之谈，所以很多具体内容没有太多的共鸣。 @ Jeao&Leon 早上刚刚 读完第一篇， 写得太欢乐了。PS 夏天还能边沐浴阳光边在沙发上读书的感觉真棒 @ 王龁 Joel是非常睿智的一个人，在商业上也及其成功，Trello, StackOverflow 如雷贯耳~~~ @ 小豆子 和前一部书一样好。之前一直因为价格高没有买这本书（终于趁着打折买了），现在读来，虽然据出版已去6年之久，但是书的内容完全不过时。作者的文字还是那么好看，非常喜欢。 @ copy on write 才知道Joel是SO的创始人.. @ 地中海胖叔 美式直率（糙），但话糙理不糙。要是20年前的我读此书肯定会觉得很爽，可惜现在不会，因为此书有点天真。我现在的看法是，美国（及少数几个其他国家）是个特例，一个互相扶持促进整体效率的唯一个例。其他国家的软件团队，难防小人行径。 @ 暗夜里的小屁孩 Joel 讲述了自己对行业的一些观察，体会。以及通俗易懂地解释了三种管理方法：1. 命令式 2. 金钱鼓励式 3. drive passion and motivate – use any social skills… 还有joel自1990年到现在的一些心得体会，包括工程管理。强烈推荐给码农同胞 @ frankjazz 全书都是短篇。有种Paul Graham的风味，可以当做茶余饭后的读本。 @ 蛋饼 The Pragmatic Programmer外，又有一本讲“软件开发哲学”的书了。
