I'm sure we all have our favorites. And I've suggested to Dr. Bob that he link "In Session" from the intro to this board. But I guess it's more personal if we recommend it to each other. Still, I think linking it from the top of the board might help more people. :)
I've got a closet shelf full of psych books that I need to categorize anyway (I keep them out of the main household library). It'd be a chance for me to reaquaint myself with old favorites. If we recommended them with brief descriptions and notations as to what theoretical background they come from, it might be even more useful. For example, as chock full of great information a book written from a traditional analytic position may be, my eyes tend to glaze over from page 1. It's like the Trigonometry of psych approaches. While Kottler is more like the Algebra of psych approaches and I can understand his books better.
Maybe when we all finish the thread, along with feedback as we read each others' recommendations, Dr. Bob could even link it from the tips page or something.
All mighty ambitious for someone who's marginally suicidal right now. But that's how I tend to deal with those feelings. Get really really involved in something else.
