“Beautiful Code: Leading Programmers Explain How They Think” is one of the best books ever written on programming. There are two smart guys Andy Oram and Greg Wilson behind this beautiful programming book. Andy Oram is an editor while Greg Wilson holds a Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Edinburgh. He worked on high-performance scientific computing, data visualization, and computer security. In this book, authors told the newbie programmers how do the smart programmers think. It is a unique and insightful book leading computer scientists to offer case studies that reveal how they found unusual, carefully designed solutions to high-profile projects. The book enables newbie programmers to look over the shoulder of major coding and design experts to see problems through their eyes. Unlike other programming books, this is not simply another design patterns book or another software engineering treatise on the right and wrong way to do things. Its authors think aloud as they work through their project’s architecture. In short, Beautiful Code is an opportunity for master coders to tell their story in more attractive and smart way.
