I generally recommend Code Complete by Steve McConnel for procedural and OO programming, less so for rapid scripting, even less suitable if you are into functional programming (where SICP rules supreme). For ways to deal with the common issues on a software development team, see his other books, Software Project Survival Guide. Rapid Development is also good.
