Any recommendations of must-have O'Reilly books? 5000+ items is a heck of a lot to look through in one day.



"Collective Intelligence" is a recent favorite and I notice that a bunch stuff from No Starch Press (The TCP/IP Guide / Think Like a Programmer), which I've become a fan of recently, is on sale.


Thanks! That's my book, appreciate you mentioning it.


Don't feel you need to rush out and bulk purchase books. O'Reilly often offer large discounts like this one.


Narrow it down to topics you actually want to learn?


I was imagining building a list of books which are included which are generally recommended as must-reads, so people could fill out their libraries of known top books.


If it helps, I bought Conrad Barski's Land of Lisp and Steven Levy's Hackers (25th anniversary edition).
