"Tog on Interface", by Bruce Toggizinni(sp?).
A great fun-to-read book on all things Human Factors
The McConnell stuff, or course.
O'Reilly's 2nd Edition "Dynamic HTML: The Complete Reference" would be a bargain at $1000. Anyone doing web work needs to have this book. A tag by tag (and attribute by attribute) guide to every aspect of HTML, the DOM, CSS, JavaScript and Events, including what works on what version of what browser at the attribute level.
"The Phantom Tollbooth", by Norman Juster. It has nothing to do with coding, but you shouldn't be allowed to be an adult without having read it.

UPDATE: fixed 4th to 2nd in the O'Reilly book
