I would highly recommend Imposter's Handbook[1] by Rob Conery

Then there is also excellent BaseCS Podcast [2]

I would find it very difficult to recommend this book - I think parts of it are simply factually mistaken, unfortunately, and I worry someone using knowledge from it would make themselves look like more of an imposter, not less.

The book itself is a good idea and the author seems to have good intentions even if they didn't take advice in this case, though.
