Maybe another way of saying "Staying Idiomatic" is "What made you great before won't this time."

I had to do a C++ project a while back and got my hands on "Advanced C++ Programming Styles and Idioms" by James Coplien through a friend's recommendation. Best thing I ever did to really understand the soul of the language.

I am sure there is such "soul identifying" book for each language. What would those books be? If you know of one, reply here. I'd love to know them (Go, Haskell). Not just books that show you the syntax, but which show you the soul.
