I've not read the book, but I get the feeling the title (which is not copied word for word on the cover oddly) makes an attempt to draw on the popularity of the book entitled "The Pragmatic Programmer" [1], which is basically required reading for professional programmers. I thought you were talking about that book at first until I followed the link. [1] http://urlx.org/amazon.com/b2764 Looks to me like Chad Fowler (the author) is more of a professional Ruby on Rails programmer [2]. Definitely not the same field of work I do (C++ GUI Applications), but if you work in the same type of environment, I don't doubt many of the concepts outlined in the book apply to you.
