The Mythical Man Month
Software Engineering
A 1975 collection of essays arguing that adding manpower to a late software project makes it later, and that large-system programming carries irreducible complexity no tool or method can eliminate. Kernighan calls it 'the great classic of software engineering, one of the few computer science books that repays frequent reading.'
