on “Which programming book you just couldn’t stop reading from start to end?” ↗Once one adopts the refactoring mindset, its lessons and approaches can also infuse new code aka "prefactoring". :) Ken Pugh wrote a 2005 book called " Prefactoring: Extreme Abstraction - Extreme Separation - Extreme Reliability 1st Edition", which won a 2006 Dr. Dobbs' Jolt award. http://www.drdobbs.com/joltawards/2006-jolt-awards/187900423...
on “The Second Edition of “Refactoring”” ↗Did you also read "Refactoring to Patterns"? If so, could you compare that with Prefactoring ? https://industriallogic.com/xp/refactoring/
