The Non-Designer's Design Book: Fourth Edition

Robin Williams

No, not that Robin Williams. Robin Williams, the designer.

Developers are not known as great designers-- but it's a skill that can be learned.

Years ago, I learned my initial design skills from version 1 of Robin Williams' book, and now I'm recommending it to you. Every coder should know the basics of design.  This book will set you on the path to successful designs.

Grokking Algorithms

Aditya Bhargava

Read about algorithms?  I'd rather watch someone get a haircut.  It's not as boring as it sounds with Grokking Algorithms.  Written so a novice can understand this all-important concept, you'll actually look forward to reading about common algorithms in this heavily illustrated and easy-to-understand book.
