I've done some light programming, mostly of the accrete and evolve
variety, but I've always had trouble putting together a larger project and
making it work. I'd like to learn about software design. Hoping not to
spend money, I checked by little library and found a book I bought used
some time ago,

"Software Engineering: A Practitioner's Approach" by Roger S. Pressman,
1982.

Is a book from 1982 still worth reading, or is it so obsolete by now that
I should just move straight to something else? And if the latter, what
are some good titles?
