The Motley Fool's Rule Breakers, Rule Makers : A Foolish Guide to Picking Stocks

by D. & T. Gardner.
One of the latest book by the 2 brothers. They're smart, they invest their money for real (as opposed to other simulated portfolios) and it has recently been multiplied by 10 in less than 5 years! But this was written at the height of the technology bubble...

Unemotional Investor

by Robert Sheard.
Formerly from the Fools team, Robert Sheard defines a more aggressive way to invest your money. As usual with the Fools, it is full of back dated information and checks. Quite interesting, but the main strategy works best on a monthly basis which involves more work and more capital gains...In this market however, it is a matter of survival to be ..."unemotional"!

The Millionaire Next Door

by Thomas J. Stanley & Williams Danko.
Do they own a Ferrari? Do they live in a posh area? Do they look like Millionaires? You guessed it: not. It is an interesting, however a bit repetitive book about the profile of an American millionaire in the 90s.
