Barely a year out of school, and still learning every day... about things I've yet to learn. “Managing Humans” was an insight into the wonderful world of the “people stuff”-side of making software, mostly management. Read in two sittings in the local Starbucks this weekend. 5 stars/both thumbs up.

Now, I've not been working as a drone for a big faceless corporation since leaving school, quite the opposite — I've been immersed in the wonderful world of startups, where you can't help but learn about much more than technology. (Which makes it all much more fun.) Still, there's only so much you can learn in a year (or ten), so when someone like rands speaks, you listen. And take lots of notes.

I read a lot, and this one of the few books this year which I read cover to cover. Pure win.
