Abstract

To summarize,Software engineering Environmentsprovides a useful overview of recent progress in software engineering tools and methods; particularly from a UK perspective. The majority of the contributions are well-written but the general paucity of introductory material and the level of technical detail in some chapters might prove daunting to readers unfamiliar with software engineering. It would have been helpful if the editor had made more effort to draw out the common themes and important issues; either by linking sections of the book with short discussion (as Hawley did forArtificial Intelligence Programming Environments) which helps to smooth over the changes in prose style or by cross-referencing points made by different authors. As it stands the result is rather a peculiar hybrid between a conference proceedings and a multi-author text book.
