+1 on the "Understanding Audio" Daniel Thompson book. I think that it's about the best general, all-around book out there on the subject right now. Others may be better at this or that, and worse at this or that, but overall, this is my fave of the current bunch.Behind The Glass is a really interesting read.
I got a book for Christmas that I've read some bits and pieces from thus far called Understanding Audio. It's by Daniel M. Thompson and is published by Berklee Press. I've read that its actually used as a textbook at Berklee, for whatever its worth. I think its a fairly new publication, and its pretty in-depth (plenty of math explained within) AND it covers analog and digital recording, which is a pleasant surprise.
Mixing with your Mind by Paul Stavrou
80 bucks?! That's a bit steep for a recording book. Does it come with audio examples? How can we know it's worth it? I checked out the web site and it looks interesting in the $30-50 range.

I really like "The Mixing Engineer's Handbook", by Bobby Owsinski. The Bob Katz mastering book is a must-have in my opinion. These two books will keep you busy for a while!
