Tech Books on Your bookshelf?
 

I just picked up the Pocket Ref after watching last weeks MythBusters. I'm pretty overwhelmed by it, 768 pages of pure info, From electronic formulas, to metal strength, to a list of major US airports, to First Aid Info.. It got a permanent place in my bookbag :)

Also i picked up Robot Builder's Soucebook. Its kinda like a yellow pages for robot stuff. Should be a great resource for personal robot projects or even FIRST robots.

Finally, another book thats been a fav of mine is Hacking the Xbox.
Its a great read if you were ever interested in how the whole reverse engineering process works. Not only is a great book for the reverse engineering parts, but the Xbox reference section was a great help when i started to poke around my own Xbox.

Now i have alot more tech books, but i want to hear what books you guys like! I'm always looking for better books to add to my collection :D

Rick,
The Pocket Reference is one of the best, I keep it handy. Another great book is the ARRL Radio Amatuer's Handbook. This is book receives a going over every year and has some of the best all round useful data for electrical designs, electronics, operating, etc. It is also a great source for reverse engineering.
