Building an Enterprise Architecture Practice: Tools, Tips, Best Practices, Ready-to-Use Insights (The Enterprise Series) Review

Building an Enterprise Architecture Practice: Tools, Tips, Best Practices, Ready-to-Use Insights (The Enterprise Series)

As a practicing Enterprise Architect (EA) I have found the to be an good book for reference - if used as a filler along with other books.
If your are new to EA this is a good book to have in your library, however it is not the only one you will need. This book is somewhat thin on content in many critical areas, but what is present is of fairly good quality.
An example of missing detail would be how to create and maintain an ongoing EA practice that will survive beyond the first budget review cycle. This book talks about the steps of creating a practice in theory and uses a sample company as an example, however it is idealized for the book and does not reflect reality in today's world of "what have you done for me lately" economics.
It is quite expensive for what you get, considering that it is just enough to make you realize that you need a whole lot more that you did not get.

Best Practices in Business Technology Management Review

This book provides good overview of corporate Information Technology and the issues a corporation needs to consider.
The author reinforces various themes throughout the book. As the senior technology manager of a 300 person company I found the concepts very interesting, all though I think the main audience is for Technology leaders of much larger corporations. The book is well worth a read, it is written in plain english and has lots of easily understandable graphs.
