* Algorithms has CLR (Introduction to Algorithms, by Cormen, Leiserson, Riverst and Stein)* Compilers has the dragon book (Compilers: Principles, Techniques, and Tools)* Lisp has a few, as far as I know. There's pg's "ANSI Common Lisp" and "Paradigms of Artificial Intelligence Programming" by Norvig which I hear is fantastic from everyone that read it.

I think many (if not most) topics don't have such an obvious single authorative source.Machine Learning: Tom M. Mitchell
