10 Programming Books You Absolutely Want Within Easy Reach

To make this list, a book must be on my “close” shelf, and must

  • Be useful today
  • Be incredibly well written

I have a second list coming, 10 Programming Books You Absolutely Must Read – those are not on my easy reach shelf, but are equally important.

Note also that many of these are not yet released; they represent the updated versions of books I keep close at hand…

Full Disclosure: As an author, I try hard neither to criticize competing books nor to hype mine.  You’ll find just one (out of a couple dozen) of my books in this list. Finally, these links are through my private Amazon Associates account, and thus I gain a few pennies if you buy them (more if they are mine).
