Question Books for X-mas - Suggestions?

Time to put together a list for my wife of things I might want for x-mas. I could use some good reading material on aircraft engines, instrumentation, panel orgnaization, and electrical systems. Any suggestions?

There was a great thread a week or two back about books to read when getting ready to build....you should be able to search for that! (I would, but this connection is a bit shaky....)

Found It: http://www.vansairforce.com/communit...hlight=reading
