Zen & the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, R Pirsig

Can't believe this hasn't been listed yet: Atlas Shrugged

Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand: http://www.amazon.com/o/ASIN/0452011876/ Don't buy the mass-market paperback, the writing and margins are so small that it is a pain to read.

Snow Crash and In the Beginning was the Command Line by Neal Stephenson

1984

1984 has a lot to teach

1984 - turned me from a die hard socialist to a rabid anti authoritarian.

Isaac Asimov - Foundation Series : taught me to have no fear 'cause Hari Seldon already figured it all out and I'm gonna be alright.
