Teach Yourself Programming in 10 Years
Peter Norvig, Director of Search Quality at Google, has an excellent essay titled Teach Yourself Programming in 10 Years.  It's a commentary on the state of books titled “Teach youself x-technology in y days/hours/minutes.”  Although written in 2001, it's still relevant if not more so than when he first wrote it.

Rick - I agree. If you want to become a technical master, Norvig lays out a really great plan.
