This is the book I use for my approach to inspections on FDD projects. I used forms straight out of this book and my inspection system (the publishing, the feedback loop though to dynamic checklists and related issues, etc.) were all heavily influenced by this book. Gilb also writes well on inspections but I find his book a much tougher read than this one. This book is far more accessible and hence practical.
FYI - my direct influence from inspections was using them for several years during my time as a developer at IBM's Rochester Programming Laboratory.
