Take your time reading Clean Craftsmanship. . . . Keep this book on your go-to bookshelf.

–From the Foreword by Stacia Heimgartner Viscardi, CST & Agile Mentor

In Clean Craftsmanship, the legendary Robert C. Martin (“Uncle Bob”) has written the principles that define the profession–and the craft–of software development. Uncle Bob brings together the disciplines, standards, and ethics you need to deliver robust, effective code and to be proud of all the software you write.

Robert Martin, the best-selling author of Clean Code, provides a pragmatic, technical, and prescriptive guide to the foundational disciplines of software craftsmanship. He discusses standards, showing how the world’s expectations of developers often differ from their own and helping you bring the two in sync. Bob concludes with the ethics of the programming profession, describing the fundamental promises all developers should make to their colleagues, their users, and, above all, themselves.
