Peopleware: Productive Projects and Teams, by DeMarco and Lister. This book was "heartily" recommended by Brooks in The Mythical Man-Month (pg. 276).

Object-Oriented Modeling and Design, by Rumbaugh, Blaha, et al.
This book talks about creating a software product from conception up to implementation. It's rather long, since it covers how to design huge software products that take many years/people to develop. However, perhaps it's worth a skim. Sometimes found in the Brown Bookstore, basement computer books section. We may have one copy to loan out (for a few days) to anyone who's interested. Those of you prospective project leads might want to look at it to get some ideas on how to proceed with the design portion of the process.
Software Development Process's Joel Young suggests checking out a web site at CMU where they define a process for creating reliable software. The Software Engineering Institute's website describes their capability maturity model.
