"Trading in the Zone" or if you don't mind a little dryness, "the disciplined trader" both by Mark Douglas. These books highlight the mental aspect of trading which IMHO is the most important and potentially the most difficult.

Re: Best Book for Beginner Trader
Initially try reading less and jump on to trading and experiment with little money. Once you get a feel for it, you will know which books are better for you. There's a lot of books on the market but only a handful on each aspect of trading thats quality. Good Luck,
