CIS 422 Textbooks
Required Textbook
Sommerville 6th edition. This is expensive. Sorry :( It is what is
called a "breadth" book - it covers a lot of topics in bite size chunks. We've looked
at all of the 422 style books, and this looks the best. (Damning with faint praise.)
Optional Textbooks
Extreme Programming Installed.
I recommend that you hold off on this book until you see the XP web site. If you don't
think there is enough there, then consider the book.
Java Security.
I think this is a valuable book to have, but you will only be using pieces of it and
only for one aspect of your first project. Maybe wait and see.
Books on Reserve
I'll get at least one copy of all three books on reserve at main library. If I have
extra copies, I'll also put them there.
