Computer science is a broad and complex subject. Newcomers eager to launch their website or learn more about computing can be overwhelmed by the sheer number of existing topics. In my opinion, this book is one of the best introductions to designing applications and computer programs that are of value to people. Clear in its concepts; it motivates rather than confuses.

Clean Code remains one of the best books on programming by far. Instead of going over a particular language, it lays out the fundamentals of programming as a language. It teaches you basic rules to follow and shows you how to structure and document your code the first time around and how to refactor your code when you find a better way to do something.

Even as new software is developed and new programming languages become popular, this book helps you get into the mindset of a programmer. It gives you a practical approach that’s broken down into concrete, measurable steps.
