I’ve read a couple of those books. To me, many of them are too dull. School textbooks. The same books also seem to be on every list like this. Today, 12 years after finishing university I prefer the hands-on pragmatic books, written by practitioners for practitioners, books that would never work as text books at a university. For example Effectiva Java.
