A look at usability from an entirely different point of view -- the user's. The book isn't really about computers, but the general principles mentioned there also highly apply to computers. Whether you're a designer or programmer, you should take a look at this book.

Additions:
An introduction to (functional) programming, but also covers (very) advanced topics and some pretty neat stuff. If you're not into reading, the video lectures for the first edition of the book are here?. Highly recommended!

Additions:
Not so much on programming, but a general overview over programming techniques used in Unix/Linux applications. Also contains a nice historic overview.
If you don't feel like reading any "technical" literature, you could read some Terry Pratchett? books, of which I'd recommend The Wee Free Men? and A Hat Full Of Sky?.

While maybe redundant for people who have been programming for a long time already, I found it a very interesting read.
