This is one of my favourite recent books on software development and I’m happy to recommend it. I do think the earlier chapters are better overall than the later ones. The discussions about complexity, modularity and abstraction, and trying to integrate special cases are particularly good reading for any intermediate developer looking to improve their understanding. I didn’t have big problems with the later chapters about comments and naming either, but I didn’t feel they offered the same level of insight or much unique perspective that you wouldn’t find in many other decent programming books.
