Practical guidelines for software architect nowadays
The book covers many topics that average developer doesn't face on a daily basis. You should not buy the book if you are expecting technical details on building software. You should buy the book if you want to have a position, where you are responsible for quality of the built software. Quality is a process, and that is what author tries to tell and explain in details, starting from design thinking and finishing with a concrete set of tools ready to use. Everything from problem understanding, exploring, to making and evaluating is covered. You should not expect many details on each phase, but knowing all the given foundations you will master skills in real project faster. Quality of the book is perfect, the content is well organized, all pictures are awesome.
