1.	5 votes 99 pts	Code Complete A very well written book on good programming practices. Everything is backed up with studies. I own the Second Edition. 3 Comments
2.	5 votes 93 pts	Head First Design Patterns An amazing book in the awesome "Head First" series. A great way to install design patterns into your brain making them readily accessible. The other head first books are worth checking out. So is Kathy Sierra's blog, http://headrush.typepad.com/, a great place for brain food. 1 Comment

[show more] The Python Cookbook is a collection of problems, solutions, and practical examples for Python programmers, written by Python programmers. It contains over two hundred recipes for text manipulation, object oriented programming, XML processing, system administration, and much more. This book is a treasure trove of useful code for both novices and advanced practitioners, with contributions from such Python luminaries as Guido Van Rossum, Tim Peters, Paul Prescod, and Mark Hammond.

It is written in Eiffel, but the author leads you through everything step by step, principle by principle. He starts very abstractly, mathematical level then leads you into the detail.

9.	2 votes 39 pts	The Design of Everyday things by Donald A Norman. Perhaps not the first choice of everyone, but anyone who is involved in user interface design should read this book. A superb work on design as a concept, and what makes a design great (and what makes it awful). Learn why you push doors that need to be pulled open, and vice-versa.... [show more] by Donald A Norman.
