I'm really going to have to resist the urge to buy any more books for a while as I am beginning to drown in a sea of <em>must-reads</em> which now includes:</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0387948600/203-3198542-4572716">The ALGORITHM Design Manual</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/1590596234/203-3198542-4572716">Eric Sink on the Business of Software</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0262510871/203-3198542-4572716">Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0521692695/203-3198542-4572716">Programming in Haskell</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/1594865132/203-3198542-4572716">The Intellectual Devotional</a> (<a href="http://wilwheaton.typepad.com/wwdnbackup/2007/01/the_intellectua.html">recommended by Wil Wheaton</a> who writes an excellent blog)</li> </ul> <p>I was going to put Programming Haskell straight on the shelf since I've diverted into Erlang instead but I figure a lot of what I read there will still be applicable in Erlang. It's all functional programming, right?</p> <p>Anyway I've started cataloging my book collection <a href="http://www.librarything.com/profile/mmower">at LibraryThing</a>.</p> http://matt.blogs.it/entries/00002515.html
