I'm not sure that counts, it's a bit self-referential!
Coincidentally, I have just started re-reading [ame="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Godel-Escher-Bach-Eternal-anniversary/dp/0140289208/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1238064921&sr=8-1"]Douglas Hoffstadter's GEB: Godell, Escher Bach - An Eternal Golden Braid.[/ame]
If you are on this thread then I hugely recommend reading this book. By far the most impressive treatise I have ever encountered; synthesising mathematics, art, computation, consciousness and a whole lot more.
It's so nice to find something that can make your brain spin a good, "flying down hill on a fixed wheel but in control" kind of way.
