Apologies for the bad formatting- I have these in a spreadsheet, but I'm not too good in using "mail-merge" to make them into a readable format. Some books should actually cover a few categories (such as perspective+composition) but I will refine them in the next update.
This is by no means a comprehensive list. Most of the books here are what I refer to regularly while studying.
