There is an old book that was very popular in Russia: Etudes for Programmers by Charles Wetherell I wonder how well known it is here... There is only one review on Amazon. Have anybody read it? Another one is probably classic: How to Solve It by G. Polya. -- it is about mathematical problems, but generalizations are so broad that they can be applied to just about any pronlem. What other books can you recommend?
This is supposed to be the good book,I am waiting for its Indian edition.

Hi Jon, Is the book available at bookstore for browsing because I saw the Amazon review by a math professor in Connecticut very discouraging? Thanks, MCao

Data Structures and Algorithms in Java is an excellent book. I own a copy of it and it will provide any person with a thorough foundation to build up on.
