Here are some mini-reviews of some of the best books we have on our shelves. We've divided the book lists into the following categories:

Code -  These books are all about writing better code. The less you think you need them, the more you do...

C++ -  C++ is a rich and expressive language. We find these books invaluable in taming it.

COM -  We used to think there were more books written on COM than anything else. Then we found the room marked Java...

UNIX -  

Peopleware -  As important as the code can be, usually it's the people that matter most.
