This summer I finally had time to read Code Complete from cover to cover. And I didn’t regret it. It’s really one of the best books on programming I’ve ever read. The author is Steve McConnell. For a very passionate review of this book check the Coding Horror blog.
The book discusses the construction phase of software projects: the actual coding. It presents lists of best pratices for every construction detail, along with best/worst examples and research data. It also mentions more briefly subjects such as software design, requirements and testing.
Despite its age (the 1st edition was released in 1993), its advices remain essential for every programmer. A must read.

The complete list of reviewed books.
