What is the single most influential book every programmer should read?
Hello
With sites like The Daily WTF and recurring threads on Slashdot and elsewhere about bad programming, I figured that, to avoid people reinventing the wheel (badly or not), there should be a good, fat book on programming that would go through typical programming problems and show good, known algorithms, either in pseudo-code or some language with an easy syntax so that the language is not an issue.
Here's the list of books on the subject I saw at my local computer bookstore. Can you recommend a couple, or add to this list if it's missing better options?
- The art of computer programming
 - Code complete
 - Masterminds of programming
 - 97 things every programmer should know
 - The passionate programmer
 - Pragmatic thinking & learning
 - Coders at work
 - The algorithm design manual
 - Algorithms and programming
 - How to think about algorithms
 - How to think like a programmer
 - Why programs fail
 - Beautiful data
 - Beautiful code
 - The productive programmer
 - Solid code
 - Write great code
 - Clean code
 - Programming language pragmatics
 - Hello world
 - Learning Processing
 - Learn to program
 
Thank you.
