I was also thinking about this book when I read that article. It's really an excellent book and it's condensed and because it's written by an expert in teaching it's easy to grasp.
It's also recommended in this article:
"Update, 2020-12-19
After suggestions from comments below, I read A Philosophy of Software Design (2018) by John Ousterhout and found it to be a much more positive experience. I would be happy to recommend it over Clean Code".
- MrJohz 4y agoHaha, I read the article immediately after this comment and saw that comment, I think it wasn't there last time I read it (so presumably before the end of 2020!). I agree that it's probably not as good for complete beginners, but it's really good for anyone with a bit of experience looking to move from "I'm just writing code" to "I'm writing actual software".
