If we're talking about a book to serve as a companion text to a life drawing class, I'll have to go with George Bridgman's "Constructive Anatomy." If you're looking for an academic survey of figure drawing concepts, I'd go with Nathan Goldstein's book. (The best book on drawing for absolute beginners is "How to Draw Comics the Marvel Way," by Stan Lee and John Buscema. It's an art school in a book.)

The basic book to the Arthurian legend is 'King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table' - an illustrated classic by Howard Pyle.
There is no definite answer to that. The book will probably say 10* BTDC but I get the best performance and no pinging at 15-16*. I think the book is usually pretty conservative. This sounds old school, but you will get the best results by timing it to best idle, then backing it off a hair at a time if it starts hard.
one great book for beginners is Haircutting for Dummies by J. Elaine Spear
Theory of Poker by David Sklansky

Guerilla Jiu Jitsu is Dave Camarillo's style of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Check their site: http://www.davecamarillo.com/ Jon Fitch is one of his black belts. (I first saw the refence to Guerilla Jiu Jitsu in his UFC 100 fight bio.) Dave wrote a book on the style and here is the summary off of Amazon: Guerrilla Jiu-Jitsu is a groundbreaking system of grappling that integrates the Olympic sport of judo with Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, today's most sought after grappling art. These are the techniques and strategies that allowed Camarillo to devastate the competition at some of the world's most prestigious judo and jiu-jitsu tournaments and have led his students to more than a dozen victories in the Ultimate Fighting Championship. Guerrilla Jiu-Jitsu offers a leg up on virtually every opponent who refuses to stray from the parameters of his discipline.

There are many Vincent Fields out there, but given that the question was asked in the Martial Arts category, I'll give it a bet that it is the one who wrote a book on leg locks. I understand he studied and taught Russian Sambo, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Muay Thai Kickboxing, and Wrestling. He has a number of DVDs on techniques available.
There are many books suitable for beginners that teach about zazen. Understand that zazen is a practice. The best way to learn about zazen is to do it--not just to read about it. From that perspective, the best book for beginners that teaches not only some of the theory behind Zen Buddhism but also clearly instructs how to begin a zazen practice at home is still Philip Kapleau's THE THREE PILLARS OF ZEN. .
If you have never cooked in your life, I suggest any beginners cake book that you could probably get from your local library.
