- numbsafari 7y agoRelax. Nobody said it was a mandatory reading list. There are no tests. It's a suggested reading list that I pull from depending on context. Joe's thesis is incredibly accessible. At least two of my items were on Alan Kay's list. The other being "The Mythical Man Month", especially the edition with the "No Silver Bullet" article, which a depressing number of people in our industry seem to not have read. So I don't feel like I'm too far off the mark.
