CLR via C# is one of the books that should be considered to be read by experienced .NET software engineer. I would not recommend this position to fresh software engineer. This book touches many (if not all) advanced areas in .NET framework up to 4.0. Jeffrey describes how C# language is implemented the way it is or why C# compiler works as it works (i.e. why it uses callvirt IL instruction, instead of call IL instruction, when calling a non-virtual instance method). In several places author has good arguments in hand to criticize .NET development team for that how they have implemented some CLR features (i.e. Exceptions mechanism) :)

Clean Code: A Handbook of Agile Software Craftsmanship is a "must read" for every software engineer book. I read this book a while ago and I think it is one of the best positions in programming techniques.
