It's a 24Meg PDF with ... one page?

No Mythical Man Month?

I don't know if I can consider this a serious top ten list of software engineering ideas if it doesn't list Brooks' book.

It has a couple of the ideas but not a link or picture of the book itself.

Not sure why the creator needed so many hi-res images.

It has been awhile since I've read "The Mythical Man-Month", but I think it covers most of this diagram. It looks like Mr. Yourdon was just trying to flesh things out. A diagram with just the cover of MMM would have less impact.

Off-hand, the hi-res images would be nice if you were printing a wall-sized poster from this diagram.
