Summary
Few books in computing have had as profound an influence on software management as "peopleware". The unique insight of this longtime best seller is that the major issues of software development are human, not technical. They’re not easy issues; but solve them, and you’ll maximize your chances of success.
For this third edition, the authors have added six new chapters and updated the text throughout, bringing it in line with today’s development environments and challenges. For example, the audiobook now discusses pathologies of leadership that hadn’t previously been judged to be pathological; an evolving culture of meetings; hybrid teams made up of people from seemingly incompatible generations; and a growing awareness that some of our most common tools are more like anchors than propellers.
Anyone who needs to manage a software project or software organization will find invaluable advice throughout the audiobook.

Inspiring and original but a bit idealistic
It's an interesting read, explores several areas of how teams work effectively and how to build good teams. At times it feels like it's overly idealistic and doesn't allow for enough nuance.
