New books for my geekshelf

Just ordered three new books!
They all have really great rating, and I actually read some on Google Books (I really love that beast..I never waste my money on books)

I don’t know if I will ever be done reading all these books, but I think they deserve to be on my geekshelf, which is already full of computer science and programming books…and the Harry Potter series :D

1. Algorithm Design Manual

How many of these algorithm books do I need before I clearly understand NP-complete problems?

2. Concurrency in Java

Something I really need. UC San Diego emphasized a lot in Java (and C). However, I took my operating system class with a professor who favored C. So.. I never had to deal with multithreading with Java craps. This books seems to cover a lot of details on how to do multithreading correctly in Java, plus the concept of multithreading.

3. Coders at Work

Interviews of many famous coders… this should be fun.
