    <h2>The Mythical Man Month</h2>
    <p><em>The Other Face</em> is a chapter which tries to explain what good documentation looks like.
Brooks describes nine principles which should guide the programmer to write a useful description.
I won&rsquo;t cite them here, but what is more interesting is that he suggests that it is imperative the coder writes the documentation <em>before</em> starting to code.</p>
