"Not terrible, but not great, this book has a much higher stature among Microsofties than is strictly deserved, and little visibility beyond that group. Says nothing in 960 pages that The Practice of Programming doesn't manage to convey more clearly and succinctly in 267. Ok as a supplement to the latter for those looking for longer justifications for the same recommendations, or those deathly allergic to Unixisms. Pointless otherwise."
"I probably got less out of the book, having worked as a developer for a couple of years out of school, than say, a college student or somebody fresh out. Or maybe dinosaurs that are out of touch and need to get back into the game.
The second half of the book is pretty much a catalog of refactoring techniques. It's definitely geared towards the aforementioned audiences.
McConnell covers a few other topics, related to design, teamwork, testing, and configuration management, but doesn't go into depth for many of them.
Still, it's an excellent book to have around, if there's confusion about what you're trying to explain to someone."
