The book on refactoring may have been "Refactoring" as suggested by Robert. But, I might also have mentioned http://www.amazon.com/Working-Effectively-Legacy-Michael-Feathers/dp/0131177052 If you don't have "Code Complete" by McConnell, any edition is well worth it. Honestly, you'd need to narrow down the area of programming you want books about. I've got a couple hundred in easy reach, ranging from language-specific to Cryptography, and from beginner to advanced. What are you looking for? G.
