Code Complete by Steve McConnell

This is a must read for any developer or development manager. After reflection, I consider this a first level book for developers; still I was impressed with what I learned from this book.

Many of the ideas and concepts are known to us instinctively, if you practice sound software development. It helps to read what we know to confirm that we are on a right path.

I also found this book useful for getting entire teams on the same page concerning defect correction, code documentation, and general process issues. This is a perfecting your craft kind of book and the entire team can grow together. None of the material is difficult and easily lends itself to some debate.
