Let's not get too carried away ripping on Bob. Clean Code is the "Wealth of Nations" of software engineering. Lots of pages of examples and discussion somewhat steeped in the time but nevertheless containing a sentence or two that make everything click and cements an inevitable and pervasive set of core ideas on the subject.
I wish we could bring ourselves to value writing code that is accessible instead of conjuring up gibberish that reads like a pretentious scientific journal. Uncle Bob has literally been saying that we should write code that anyone can understand easily. Hardly a radical elitist concept.
