"[Programming] spreads much, much faster than education and formal study spreads."
This is why a Computer Science education is not a sufficient condition to a successful career as a software developer.

But software projects fail for many other reasons as well. I have read Agile Estimation and planning http://www.amazon.com/Agile-Estimating-Planning-Mike-Cohn/dp/0131479415 http://www.amazon.com/Agile-Estimating-Planning-Mike-Cohn/dp... but I'm not at a high enough level in my career for software planning. Little tangent.
