The book thread

Every so often someone mentions a really good OS book (cookery, interior design, frugal living etc). The trouble is that I always forget to jot down the title and then can't remember which thread it's on either.

So I wondered if it would be useful to have a book thread? The idea would be for people to list the title and author of their favourite OS book, together with a line or two about the book's contents.

What do you think?

    Excellent idea :T

    Me first :D

    I have Self Reliance by John Yeoman. I think of it as similar to MSE, but instead of being about money, it's about things :D
