It is getting a bit old now, but one of my favourite books on "practical" design is The Art of Electronics by Horowitz & Hill ISBN 0521370957 That is the second edition (1989) and while there are rumours of a third edition, it never seems to appear - shame.
For IC design, I think CMOS Design, Layout & Simulation by R. Jacob Baker ISBN 0470229411 covers most things, including a lot about layout which a lot of books seem a bit short of. That is the second edition and covers sub micro design better than the first edition (which I also have). He also has a new book about mixed signal design which I am tempted to get myself.
