If I wanted to really learn more about strength and conditioning, what books should I get?

What do you mean by learn more? Are you wanting theory as in the Russian text or supertraining from Mel stiff or more practical real world stuff? Why don't you email me before you start buying things and I'll hook you up.

My suggestion, watch the cpps courses from Joe D, the opex courses and Westside barbell videos. From there you can branch out.

Squat University’s Rebuilding Milo looks interesting.

Books I’ve enjoyed:

Jim Wendler’s 5/3/1 Forever.

Bret Contreras The Glute Lab.

Mark Rippetoe’s Starting Strength.

Christopher McDougall’s Born to Run.

Everyone should have a copy of Arnold's Encyclopedia. His workouts are a bit much but it's an awesome reference book for lifting. I have it in PDF if you want it.

I was going to say this. I haven’t read it, but it looks interesting.
