Summary: Good Reference
Comment: This book is alot easier to follow than the Capability Maturity Model Integration v1.1 (CMMI). It' easier to find subject matter. The pages have tabs relating to Process Areas - so no flipping thru pages and pages of information to figure out where you need to go. Yes, it has the basic information, but really, an organization should develop an original approach to CMMI and not duplicate it off existing documents.
I am new to CMMI and found this a great reference manual.

Summary: The best CMMI reference yet!
Comment: This new text by Mary Beth Chrissis et al at the SEI sets a new standard in the SEI Series in Software Engineering. It is superbly organized, leading the reader through questions like "why should we do this, and what model should we chose?", to a complete discussion of the CMMI suite of models, and ending in a well written case study. The text also includes the complete V1.1 of the CMMI models. We were an "early adopter" of the CMMI, and now use this text as our basic reference.
Highly recommended for novices, seasoned practioners, and process professionals alike.

Summary: not many "productive pages"
Comment: the book's content:
- 447 pages are a 1:1 copy of the freely available CMMI 1.1
process area description.
- 33 pages consist of a case study of a CMMI implementation.
- 70 pages are references, glossary and index.
- the remainging 100 pages are a re-hash of general
CMMI information plus -more importantly- additional
information on the interpretation of generic goals and
on process areas relationships revealing that around
15 process areas are "fundamental" and the rest is
"progressive". my interpretation of "fundamental" is
"you need them really".
overall it would have been more precise if the title would
read "CMMI 1.1 annotated reference".
best regards,
gerold
