Running: From Start To Finish written by John Stanton
an excellent book for beginners to immediate levels. This book talks about basic training to advance training, nutrition, stretches, gear, and has training schedules as well. It is well written, easy to follow and realistic.
Good luck, run happy and train smart :)

"Jack Daniel's Running Formula" is a running bible. Almost any question you have about training, preparing, and racing will be in that book. Not so sure about diet, though...
