Hey Rubbyot

I’ve delibrately kept the list short – only some my favourites are on here. I think you’re right about Peopleware, it was an excellent read and deserves a place on the list.

Programming Ruby is a good introduction to the Ruby language, however I’m not sure I’d go as far as to says it’s general enough for “every software developer”.

I have not read Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance yet, but the other three are great books. Two more great programming books are Peopleware and Programming Ruby. :)
