Some recommended books for improving as a software developer

Some recommended books for improving as a software developer

Most software books are too language specific and go out of date too quickly. What I find has stayed with me are books about bigger concepts, such as systems thinking and complexity, and also so-called "soft skills" such as management and psychology.

User experience

These are all really about developing empathy for other people :)
