Yes, the Pearls books should be required reading for all new 
programmers. The lessons are pretty timeless, it's only the
languages that change - and most of his examples seem to be
in a kind of pseudo Pascal dialect rather than real code anyway.

I believe they've been re-released as a single volume now.
