Fred Brooks, "The Mythical Man Month"
Ed Yourdon and Larry Constantine, "Structured Design"

I must have missed the discussion about Oracle books.  If I were to focus on
non-oracle books here is what my list would look like:

UNIX Secrets : I used this book a good bit when I first started on Unix. 
Notes in it are still valid from time-to-time The practical SQL Handbook -
4th Edition: cut my teeth on this book.  
Always good to review from time-to-time.
Programming Perl (Camel Book): always a trusty book when stumped on a perl
issue.

Non-Technical books, it would have to be anything by Patrick Lencioni.
