From the reviews: The purpose of this work is to introduce and demystify the concept of software factories in the .NET environment. The book covers both the theory and practice of software factories, including an acknowledgment of the genesis of the term in the late 1960s. this book is recommended reading for people involved in the management of large software development groups, particularly ones that develop many similar products. It provides a good theoretical discussion, and practical illustration in the creation of software solutions. (Neil D. Burgess, ACM Computing Reviews, Vol. 49 (3), March, 2008)
