Here's an interesting perspective: Code Is Not Literature http://www.gigamonkeys.com/code-reading/
It addresses a puzzle:
> [So many programmers say], “People should read code” but few people seem to actually do it. I’d be surprised if I interviewed a novelist and asked them what the last novel they had read was, and they said, “Oh, I haven’t really read a novel since I was in grad school.” Writers actually read other writers but it doesn’t seem that programmers really do, even though we say we should.
