About this listen
The Pragmatic Programmer is one of those rare tech audiobooks you’ll listen, re-listen, and listen to again over the years. Whether you’re new to the field or an experienced practitioner, you’ll come away with fresh insights each and every time.
Dave Thomas and Andy Hunt wrote the first edition of this influential book in 1999 to help their clients create better software and rediscover the joy of coding. These lessons have helped a generation of programmers examine the very essence of software development, independent of any particular language, framework, or methodology, and the Pragmatic philosophy has spawned hundreds of books, screencasts, and audio books, as well as thousands of careers and success stories.
Now, 20 years later, this new edition re-examines what it means to be a modern programmer. Topics range from personal responsibility and career development to architectural techniques for keeping your code flexible and easy to adapt and reuse. All the old favorite topics are there, updated for this new world. And there's a bunch of new content, reflecting what we've learned in the intervening years.
Whether you’re a new coder, an experienced programmer, or a manager responsible for software projects, use these lessons daily, and you’ll quickly see improvements in personal productivity, accuracy, and job satisfaction. You’ll learn skills and develop habits and attitudes that form the foundation for long-term success in your career. You’ll become a pragmatic programmer.
This audiobook is organized as a series of sections, each containing a series of topics. It is read by Anna Katarina; Dave and Andy (and a few other folks) jump in every now and then to give their take on things.

Better than ever
This is a really good audio book for playing as you bury your brain in code, coffee beans or Jelly Beans. There is a lot in this book. Loads of tips & tricks on many topics for coders to consider. Even if you have never progranned anything, you will learn why we love code and how we think. Because these tips, tricks & toppics can also be used in other ways in a nontechnical world.

Good book, well read. Off to boil some frogs...
Enjoyed the recording, especially the audio changes made where there would be section of code in the written book. the authors chime in to 'describe' the ideas of code rather than monotonously reading it line by line.

Worthy audiobook
So this was my first audiobook ever. I've heard a lot about the original book, and wanted to try out an audiobook to listen to my commute.
The audiobook is fantastic, code examples are illustrated very well.
The content is worthy and needed for all programmers.

Pragmatic and reasonable
if a bit preachy at times and perhaps not so easily implemented in practice at every job.
Many aha moments and reasonable recommendations. Some lessons ive learned the hard way and some new.
a good useful read.
