In Hacker’s Delight, Second Edition, Hank Warren once again compiles an irresistible collection of programming hacks: timesaving techniques, algorithms, and tricks that help programmers build more elegant and efficient software, while also gaining deeper insights into their craft. Warren’s hacks are eminently practical, but they’re also intrinsically interesting, and sometimes unexpected, much like the solution to a great puzzle. They are, in a word, a delight to any programmer who is excited by the opportunity to improve.

Free Hacker's Delight
Well written and (relatively) concise book. It contains numerous techniques for efficiently managing binary data and various examinations of bitwise arithmetic.
The algorithms explained are detailed and useful. I've used a number of them 'in anger' and they've worked perfectly. I haven't come across any other book that addresses the field as well as this one does.
By Edward Jennings
Hacker's Delight first edition was resourceful. This second edition even more so.
The bit manipulation chapters have lots of hints on how to code without branches.
There are some "scary" math on later chapters but you can ignore it.
