Robert C. Martin Working Effectively with Legacy Code, (Paperback)

from mgholls

This book provides some great insight into writing testable code even if you are not dealing with a "legacy" code base. His style is great and it really is an interesting and comfortable read.

from thegreatape

If you write software with other people, for fun or money, you should read this book. It's the best writing on how to get messy, awful software on the road to sanity, step by incremental step.

from sangahn

Great book, but get's kinda tedoius. Abstract interface, abstract implementation, so on and so on. However, I consider it to be a must read for programmers who don't work at startups (ie inevitably deal w/ legacy code).
