What are the most underrated programming books? Not properly rated (i.e. Knuth, SICP), not on any top 10 lists. I’ll start: one of mine is “Enterprise Integration Patterns,” which is about SOAP and has a boring name but is actually about thinking in subsystems. https://www.enterpriseintegrationpatterns.com/

It clarified the lower levels of a computer which we take for granted. (For me this was assembler and lower). After seeing how this all fit together I was a lot less intimidated in designing and building a language+VM+bytecode for a generative art project. Also you're right, it's been superceded by nand2tetris

I might be mistaken, bought the book 15 years ago and there was a course named after it. I assumed that because the course had been re-branded there would have also been an updated book.
