user-1: Chess books written by Aagaard, Dvoretsky and Kasparov are suitable books for master level players. I have recently discovered the book Perfect Your Chess by Volokitin & Grabinsky which is similar in vein. What other chess books are suitable for master level players?
I use the term master level players to refer to players who are at a level equivalent to 2200+ FIDE rating. Books suggested should:

be suitable for a general master level player.
contain sufficient material that will stimulate a master level player.
be useful in the training of a master level player.


user7961: A few other good books targeting stronger players: 
(1)  Imagination in Chess by Paata Gaprindashvili (master-level tactics problems)
(2)  How to Play Chess Endgames by Karsten Muller and Wolfgan Pajeken (a book about endgame technique, as opposed to endgame theory)
(3) Learn from the Legends by Mihail Marin (a study of world champions' play in position-types in which they were particularly strong);
(4) A Practical Guide to Rook Endgames by Nikolay Minev (lots of instructive material).
By the way, unless you are a rook endgame specialist and have mastered all the rook endgame material in Dvoretsky and the Minev book you should probably avoid Korchnoi's rook endgame book mentioned above, because Korchnoi's book is aimed at a really high level (more like 2400+ rather than 2200+).

user3270: Openings:
Questions of Modern Chess Theory by Isaac Lipnitsky - a Soviet classic. Gets into the ideas behind opening theory in general.
For specific opening lines - the Grandmaster Repertoire series tends to be quite good.
Middlegame: 
Dvoretksy's Analytical Manual - I didn't get too far through it but it is an incredible workout.
Endgame: 
Dvoretsky's Endgame Manual, of course. If you learn everything in this book you will have endgame knowledge that far surpasses most masters.
Practical Rook Endings - Korchnoi. Quite expensive in this listing but I found one for $15 a few years ago.
Most books by John Nunn.
General: 
Any well-regarded selection of annotated games from a GM is immensely helpful. Keres, Tal and Shirov's collections are great, to name a few.
