Summary: Section on Safety-Critical Systems a plus
Comment: The inclusion of a section dedicated to Requirements Engineering of Safety-Critical applications was a big plus and a differentiator when compared to other books on Requirements Engineering ..
Rating: 4
Summary: Valuable advices, but not for beginners
Comment: I found this book very insightfull, but it needs to have a first idea about what is the requirements engineering and how it's processed. Once you have this idea, this book helps you. You'll find here, essentially pieces of advices which looks like process patterns (in my opinion it should even improve the book to show these advices through a pattern form) to tackle specific problems whith requirements engineering. Moreover, these advices can be read separately. For the beginners, it mises a strong frame along the book to know what is exactly requirements management and so on. But I think the authors are right to do not try to satisfy everybody. As a weakness, I don't know why, but this book seems to be a bit old, where the edition date is only 1997, through a lot of details I feel to read a book written in the early 1980s. But this book is not about technology, so it's not a big weakness.
Rating: 2
Summary: Some decent suggestions, but fluff to content ratio is 5:1.
Comment: There are some usable guidelines for requirements gathering, though I feel common sense would give you many of them. I think this book is watered down heavily to fill 350 pages; the content could have fit in 50 pages. The book was not thought out.
