It really depends on what niche you're looking on covering. It's difficult, I feel, to brush up on "infosec" to any level of practical proficiency without focusing on a few subsets. Based on your interests, I would recommend the following books.
General Hacking:
Hacking Exposed
The Art of Exploitation
The Art of Deception
Intrusion Detection / Incident Response:
Network Flow Analysis
The Tao of Network Security Monitoring
Practical Intrusion Analysis
Real Digital Forensics
Reverse Engineering:
Reversing: Secrets of Reverse Engineering
The Ida Pro Book
Malware Analyst Cookbook
Malware Forensics
Digital Forensics:
File System Forensic Analysis
Windows Forensic Analysis
Real Digital Forensics
The Rootkit Arsenal
Hope this helps. If you're a University student, you might have access to Safari Books Online, which has access to almost all of these books, and more. You can also purchase a personal subscription for like $23 a month. It's a bit pricey, but they have an awesome library of technical books.
Yes.
Hacking Exposed
Shellcoders Handbook
Reverse Engineering
Malware Analyst's Cookbook
Gray Hat Python
Gray Hat Hacking Second Edition
Writing Security Tools & Exploits
Sockets, Shellcode, Porting and Coding: Reverese Engineering Exploits and Tool Coding for Security Professionals
Professional Penetration Testing
These are definitely some books you could start with. Once you've gone through those, you'll know more then a lot of them out there :)

There's also loads of blogs and websites around, if you go hunting or look at some of these netsec threads, you'll find loads more material.
My eldest is just over 2 years old, so I've got a while to go, but I plan on using software to block things on our linux-based router. And giving him a network admin guide soon after.
If he can't figure it out, that's his problem. If he can, at least he's learning something useful.
We'll see how that goes in a few years.
