Stan Weinstein's books are very good. They tend to be good for beginners, a refresher for advanced traders, and boring for professionals.
Also if you are an "options" type, and are unfamiliar, then the "Getting Started in Options by Michael C. Thomsett does not beat around the bush...its good!

I guess the reason I "promote" Elders book is because quite honestly you can have the best trading system in the world, but if your brain isn't screwed on right....you will fail!! Systems come and go..copeing with daytrading is forever!!<gg>

Throw Murphy "Technical analysis of the Financial Markets" on the reading pile. Great book that covers all the basics of TA. One of the better books I have read.
