Hello, would anyone out there have one or two recommendations for
technical writing books?
-------------------------
While the following are not about technical writing, they are enlightening for the ideas they set forth about information and design:

The Social Life of Information
   by John Seely Brown, Paul Duguid
   ISBN: 1578517087 
   This might be a little outdated now but it was an interesting read.

Information Anxiety 2
   by Richard Saul Wurman, David Sume, Loring Leifer
   ISBN: 0789724103 

The Inmates Are Running the Asylum 
   by Alan Cooper
   ISBN: 0672316498 


Now, to address your question, I found the following worth it:

Human Factors for Technical Communicators 
   by Marlana Coe
   ISBN: 0471035300
