I read it 15 years ago. No other book has influenced my programming as much as this one. The main value I got from it is that it teaches you what "clean" code looks like. Highly recommended.

You might also enjoy "Beautiful Code" then. While not everyone will agree that every example in that book is "beautiful", usually there's something in there for everyone. It's currently my favorite generalized programming book.
Thank you for the suggestion. I started that one but somehow never finished it.
