Here's where you get your foundations for software testing

From the pure software testing perspective I consider this to be the book to get your foundations. The first edition is a classic and this second edition brought the topics up to speed, at the time of publication. My point of view remains the same as with the first edition, though. What is of actual value is the foundations, and if you get a solid foundation then you can build up to become a great tester very quickly. For more you are better off reading other books.
The buy is way too pricey and that is the only complain I have about it.
