To that list I'd add Golub and Van Loan's Matrix Computations, the Kay
and Marple (or is it the other way around?) on modern spectrum estimation
(and maybe Van Trees on estimation in general, if you're game.) Also:
Hennesy and Patterson on processor architecture, Meyer on object oriented
software and something on operating system principles; maybe Tannenbaum.

[Those last pieces are sort-of self defence: one day I might have to
review or maintain your code. Being more-or-less clue-full about the
mathematics of signal processing is not the same as being able to write
good computer programs, although that is usually what is required to
complete a project. Have an understanding of the performance
characteristics of the algorithms and operations that you conjure, on the
platforms on which your code will run.]

Cheers,
