Okay, so I read the k&r and C in 21 days (never quite finished the k&r) I never really liked looking through books, reading line after line to learn what n++ does. I want to write some nice interesting stuff, and I don't want to have to spend hours on end reading books that talk about basic programming functions. Even though I never did...
What's the subject of a book on software development that you are currently reading (or want to read in the near future)? If a significant number of people are reading books on similar subjects it is probably a sign of the times (to come). [NOTE] This is not a poll on what is the best comp-sci book :-) ...
I'd like to know a little more about the overall development and history of programming. Things like how they came up with syntax and the overall thought process during the design of the older languages that laid the foundation for more modern languages. I looked through this but didn't seem to find what I was looking for. Any recomme...

I'm looking for the best books about web pages, but for the point of view of a programmer. I'm not looking for examples of good page navigation. I'm more interested into the technical information. For example HTML v3 vs v4 vs v5 (or even v4 vs v4.01). What are the most common meta tags and what do they do in each browsers. Common pitfall...
The student adviser we were working with is suddenly on leave. The plan was to design a compiler for a program which is similar to C (the basic structure of C still exists but keywords have been changed for example : for(i=0;i<10;i++) would now look like : loop i from 0 to 9 up 1 . And things such as #include have been omitted entirely...
Ken Schwaber, one of the `fathers' of Scrum, has co-authored two books on the topic with almost exactly the same title: Agile Project Management with Scrum (Microsoft Professional) and Agile Software Development with Scrum (Series in Agile Software Development) Is there any difference between the two? Are they redundant? If yes, whic...

I'm looking for a good book (or webpage, maybe) on prototype-based OO. In particular, I'm looking for something heavy on theory. Ideally, I don't want something language-specific (and I really don't want something about Javascript, but if everybody said "just read the Self manual" that's fine). Basically, is there a prototype-based eq...
I want to learn Smalltalk (particularly Squeak), but all the websites and books I've come across either assume I'm new to programming or spend forever getting acquainted with all the minutiae of the system. When I picked up Python, Dive Into Python was my Bible for months. It had a great, straightforward way of teaching me how to apply ...
I'd like to find a good book to read to come up to speed on Visual Basic for use with MS Access. I don't want a book for dummies. There's plenty that I don't know, but I'm no dummy.

We're thinking of starting up a little bit of a "library" here at work for programming/development books, to have some shared books available as references.
