Humorous, well built, and effective.

The book is structured like a course to improve their own programming style. It starts with the correct naming variables, over method name and the dividing long, confusing methods into smaller with clearly limited remit, to entire "clean" classes. Although this is of course just a small sample of all treated subjects. , The formulated rules and principles are clearly listed in a section at the end.

I like the book very much because it really makes itself felt in the programming style. I find it much easier now to keep programs clearly, so that they are well understood right away, and can also be extended without much effort.

"Clean Code" I would recommend people who have dealt already with the Java language, because the examples are being worked on, all of them are written in Java. Otherwise I think the techniques and principles are transferable but in any object-oriented language.

I opted for the English version of the book, because the German translation was evaluated in comments as partially incorrect or hard to understand. I found the book easy to understand in English.
