Timeless Laws of Software Development [Fitzpatrick, Jerry, Kohnke, Jennifer] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Timeless Laws of Software Development

Review: A lot of good points in one book - This book has a lot of good programming tips. I found the first half of the book a little boring, but the second half was dense with a lot of good programming tips, such as immutability, information hiding, and small methods. The author has a non-hyperbolic, non-dogmatic, moderate way of writing and expressing his opinions. He does a valuable job of summarizing useful points that I have read elsewhere. Good job! Some other good books to read on the same subject: Clean Code (and other books written by Bob Martin), Effective Java (especially chapters on immutability and inheritance), The ThoughtWorks Anthology (chapter on Object Calisthenics) The Art of Readable Code, Clean Code in a Nutshell, Hello Startup (chapter on Clean Code) The Pragmatic Programmer (especially parts about "Don't Repeat Yourself" and "Broken Windows")
Review: A useful quick read - I like the style of this book. It doesn't mince words, it's pretty short, the font is big and most of what it says is important and useful. On the flip side most of what it says you will have learned once you've been developing for a long time. So I think it's best for beginner to intermediate engineers. I do like the fact that at points it argues some opinions that are not trendy but in most cases, well-founded. For example, it does make a good case for thoughtful design and offers cautions regarding TDD.
