Here's a link to the (incomplete) sample chapter on their website for 'The Practice of Programming' on Debugging. http://cm.bell-labs.com/cm/cs/tpop/debugging.html I had this in my wishlist for a while. This just made me buy it. Wonder how different it will be from Code Complete 2.

It's very similar to Code Complete, but much, much shorter. Also, Code Complete has a fair bit of dumb stuff mixed in with the gems of wisdom that comprise most of it; TPOP doesn't.
