Selected Software Engineering Books

About these books

I have selected these books as useful resources for software engineering. Many of them are books that I own and have read myself, or that have been recommended to me. Rather than list hundreds of books, I have tried to select just the best and most useful.

The "Featured books" below include books on sale, as well as my overall favorites.
