  1. Mastering Software Development in R
    Mastering Software Development in R
    Roger D. Peng, Sean Kross, and Brooke Anderson

    This book covers R software development for building data science tools. This book provides rigorous training in the R language and covers modern software development practices for building tools that are highly reusable, modular, and suitable for use in a team-based environment or a community of developers. (Printed copies coming soon!)

  2. Spec Driven Development - EN
    Spec Driven Development - EN
    From vibe-coding to software engineering
    J.C.Ködel

    AI can write code faster than you can read it—so why do projects still derail? The answer is the spec. This book teaches Spec-Driven Development hands-on, building a complete app one loop at a time with Spec Kit. Stop prompting and praying. Start shipping software AI actually gets right.

  3. AI-Assisted Software Engineering
    AI-Assisted Software Engineering
    Mental Models for Building Software in the Age of Generative AI
    Antranig Momjian

    Generative AI can accelerate implementation, but effective software development still depends on sound engineering decisions. AI-Assisted Software Engineering explores how to distinguish engineering decisions from implementation tasks, decompose development work into well-defined AI-friendly tasks, apply engineering patterns, and use AI to work with unfamiliar technologies and code—all while keeping architecture, requirements, and technical direction under human control.

  4. Software Estimation
    Software Estimation
    Estimation that Works
    Stephan Schmidt

     Your CEO asks for an estimate. Your engineer says "3 weeks." Your CEO responds "you have 3 days." Sound familiar? After 30 years managing engineering teams, I've learned that most estimation is pure waste—and the pressure to give "better estimates" destroys trust and team morale. This book reveals a counterintuitive truth: stop estimating so much. Only estimate when it directly drives decisions. Learn why software estimation is fractal (like measuring Britain's coastline), how to distinguish effort from duration, and why your team keeps "missing deadlines." Discover how to reframe engineering from a cost center (always fighting for budget) to a profit center (getting the resources you deserve). Written for CTOs and engineering leaders, this practical guide delivers immediately actionable frameworks based on real experience coaching dozens of technical leaders. No theory, no agile dogma—just honest advice on estimation that actually works.
