Why I Am Not a Christian, and Other Essays on Religion and Related Subjects by Bertrand Russell

I love that book. Russell is an incredible writer with a degree of lucidity that most writers should bow down to and respect. It also has one of the best and most provocative titles I've seen.
Go straight to the good stuff now and read "The Problems of Philosophy" by him. Another triumph for clear thinking!

Dry but extremely well-defined ;-) A good read if you want to be coder because it offers a good introduction to mathematical logic and algorithms. I think it has a good, clear, logical structure which makes it a pretty easy read -- which I'm thankful of 'cuz I have the exam on monday
