Jeff Atwood on the Human Side of Software Development

Jeff Atwood from codinghorror.com tells Carl and Richard what's on his mind, including his recommended reading list, and above all the human side of software development.

Jeff Atwood

Jeff Atwood considers himself a reasonably experienced Windows software developer with a particular interest in the human side of software development, as represented in his recommended developer reading list on his blog, Coding Horror. Computers are fascinating machines, but they're mostly a reflection of the people using them. In the art of software development, studying code isn't enough: you have to study the people behind the software, too.
