Men who feel strong in the justice of their cause, or confident in their powers, do not waste breath in childish boasts of their own superiority and querulous depreciation of their antagonists.

What tech book are you reading right now?

What tech books are you currently reading?

The rules:
1) Don't count books you're being compensated to read. (paid reviews)
2) Don't count books that haven't come out yet (i.e. tech editing, or writing yourself)
3) List the author (optional) so others can find it.

For example, I'm reading:

1. Doing Objects in VB2005 by Deborah Kurata
2. Exploiting Online Games by Greg Hoglund & Gary McGraw
3. Programming SuDoKu by Wei-Meng Lee

"Designing Forms for Microsoft Office InfoPath and Forms Services 2007" by Scott Roberts and Hagen Green. It's some heavy material (not necessarily content-wise, metaphorical sense...the book's actually freaking HUGE).
