Listen "69: Andy Hunt - The Pragmatic Programmer"
Episode Synopsis
Andy Hunt and Dave Thomas wrote the seminal software development book, The Pragmatic Programmer. Together they founded The Pragmatic Programmers and are well known as founders of the agile movement and authors of the Agile Manifesto. They founded the Pragmatic Bookshelf publishing business in 2003.
The Pragmatic Bookshelf published it's most important book, in my opinion, in 2017 with the first pytest book available from any publisher.

The Pragmatic Programmer, the book
The Manifesto for Agile Software Development
