I think Clean Code is a bit overrated. I got the book, and while some of the advice is sound, especially from OOP perspective design, a big part of the book is solving JavaEE specific issues, which don't translate well to other languages.

Uncle Bob is overrated. He's the personal embodiment of the "for dummies" series of the industry. Quick to say what everything should look like, he's given many people a false sense of direction by making no mention of all the reasons why something shouldn't look like that. If you're reading Uncle Bob material and not scratching your head a bit thinking "are you sure that's right?", do yourself a favor and go find some Fowler material instead.
