I just posted a blog entry about 3-4 books that really got me inspired to learn more and be better... and realized it might belong here as well.
Books for Cooks | Arrivals and Departures - Jon Van Dalen's Food, Photography and Travel Blog
I hope you'll check it out, but in a nutshell:
Kitchen Confidential - got me started wanting more
After that I decided to learn starting with French cuisine, since it has so much history and technique behind it.
Mastering the Art of French Cooking - a great start and a classic
Les Halles Cookbook - learning "real" cooking
The French Laundry - pure heaven and a real challenge
