BTW my second choice was the "Making a Baby" book.
I was recently in the bookstore looking for books like the ones you mention. I ended up buying "What to Expect Before You're Expecting," by the author of "What to Expect When You're Expecting." I have found that book to be pretty useful. Although, most of what is in any of those books can also be found online. If you spend much time on TTC boards, most of the information in the books will be familiar to you. Still, I liked the conversational tone of the book I bought, it had helpful shaded boxes with information just for fathers, and I like to have a book to which I can refer again and again.
I have found "taking charge of your fertility" by Toni Weschler really helpful in understanding the menstrual cycle.
