    Anybody have some good recommendations for programming books? Any language goes, i.e. C/++/#, Java, Perl etc.

    I have to highly recommend this C++ one:

    Accelerated C++: Practical Programming by Example

    As the name suggests it has loads of examples. And it just seems easy to read! Highly recommended.
