I have compiled a list with some books, mostly design and typography related.
Since working for peas isn't generating much income, I must limit myself to only buying about 100 Euros worth of books at most.

Which one would you recommend as absolute must-haves from this list?

Amazon.com: Wish List

I have already read How to be a graphic Designer without losing your soul and Thinking with type.

Also, please feel free to suggest any other books you see fit.
I have a bout a couple of weeks to make up my mind.

Thanks, all.

Grid Systems in Graphic Design by Josef Muller-Brockmann is really good... But I bought it from amazon.co.uk, where it was cheaper...

Thanks. Oh I forgot. I also read Making and breaking the grid and Kimberly Elam's Grid Systems.
