Most influential books on Computer Science/programming
These are books considered most influential for programmers from this StackOverflow thread.
Cause SO is cathedral, Github is bazzar ;)
Long answer: I frequently visit above thread. Over the time, such an active thread is closed, links to book sites are removed and I have to copy/paste/search everytime I go there. I am afraid they might remove it entirely.
So, the list is preserved here :)
What is the single most influential book every programmer should read?
If you could go back in time and tell yourself to read a specific book at the beginning of your career as a developer, which book would it be?
I expect this list to be varied and to cover a wide range of things.
