Book - The Cathedral and the Bazaar: Musings on Linux.... by Eric Raymond

Hardback, 1999. Excellent pre-owned condition, still like new. "This book examines the struggle between top-down and bottom-up design, using the example of software engineering methods, based on Raymond's observations of the Linux kernel development process. The Cathedral & the Bazaar is a must for anyone who cares about the future of the computer industry or the dynamics of the information economy. Raymond's clear and effective writing style and his ability to accurately describe the benefits of open source software has been key to its publication success."
