Show Stopper!: The Breakneck Race to Create Windows NT and the Next Generation at Microsoft by G. Pascal Zachary

kennesaw59's review

4.0

A very good description of how Microsoft developed Windows NT, one of the last large operating systems built from the ground up. The book tells the story from the developers and testers viewpoint, very reminiscent of Tracy Kidder's excellent book "Soul of a New Machine"
