Tim has been writing about naming variables, classes, modules, and functions since the 1980s, and has never stopped reaching new understandings and observations.

Many people refer to naming as one of the most difficult problems in the software industry, and many people have surrendered to the idea that it can't be done. In this book, decades of experience are gathered to describe the how and why based on principles that make a difference to programmers in real codebases around the world.

It's not just another person's preferences, but a way of understanding naming that will open up your team's ability to make choices that work for your people in your project.
