review 1: About half way through I got really tired of reading "a Professional programmer does this and doesn't do that." There are some good parts of the book, like the kata exercises. However, overall it seems more like a criticism of the programming profession. Nobody's perfect. We programmers know we have faults. Stop rubbing them in our faces. If we were as "professional" as doctors maybe we'd make as much money as they do? I doubt it.
review 2: While I agree with some of what the author says about what makes a professional programmer. I had a hard time getting past the arrogance that drips from its pages. The same arrogance that I saw programmers in college have. The arrogance can be summed up as: "If you don't agree with my way of doing things you are an uneducate
... mored moron, because there is no other possible way of doing things than my way." less
