This is a classic. Like the best and most serious books, it is very funny. It is also, needless to say, true -- how true, you will learn only from experience. The book does indeed contain many secrets, but they are secret because they are hard to hear, not hard to tell -- like many things in consulting.

Weinberg is an experienced consultant and incidentally quite a dab hand at Requirements Engineering as well.
