Ask HN: What ML books would you recommend for SWE getting into the field?

What Machine Learning books would you recommend for experienced Software Engineering getting into the field? Looking for both applied (implementing ML/AI tools into existing stacks, etc.) and theoretical (understanding the math behind algos, etc.) books.

Fastai has a course offered as a book and as a MOOC that serves as a good foundation for folks with a SWE background.
