Book Reviews of Beyond Software Architecture: Creating and Sustaining Winning Solutions (Addison-Wesley Signature Series)
Book Review: Useful book for Software Product Management
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm not the kind of person who burns through business books or even likes reading them at all. I do, however, actively pursue information that will help me do my job better and more efficiently, which presents a bit of a problem when the information I need is stuck in a book somewhere. That's one of the reasons I like this book.
Being fairly new to software product management, I've read a couple of books on the topic but they all seem to be very far removed from what I actually do every day. Hohmann's book is different; it actually contains information about things that I find myself making decisions about every day. It's also written in such a way that I can jump to whichever chapter covers what I'm mulling over that day, like pricing or licensing third party technologies, without feeling like I've lost context. In almost every case, he writes about topics that I'm familiar with but covers them in more breadth than I've been able to have personal experience with. I've already found myself referencing the book to help in either my own day-to-day activity or when someone else asks for my advice. Hohmann sort of treats the reader like you're smart enough to go off and make your own decisions if he just outlines your options and potential pitfalls, which is nice because that sort of how I think of myself too.
Overall, he presents a very practical mix of marketing and technical information that I've found very useful as a software product manager.
