It’s from 2004 and I would classify it as a classic at this point.

There’s always room for improvement:) Some books from your list I do know from the days I was a student, but some i need to check them out. In this field it’s quite important to stay updated…

Bill, that’s what I’d consider a classic.

Another great development book, although a few years old now, is Michael Feathers’ Working Effectively with Legacy Code. Even if you’re not working with an older code base, it’s got some great insight.

Thank you for letting me know. I’ll steer clear of fancy formatting for lists or check them out in the iPhone simulator from now on.

Formatting on the iPhone is totally screwed up.
