The Alinea cookbook is another beautiful read but as expected, not really all that useful for home cooking.www.AlbertHuangMD.com - Digital Portfolio Of Projects & Designs

There are many cookbooks from the last decade that are very useful for the home cook. Generally, though, you need to put in the effort to achieve superlative results. Some of these books are easier to use than others, but they all contain recipes that are good to stunning.
All around:
Zuni Cafe Cookbook - Rodgers
Sunday Suppers at Lucques - Goin
Ad Hoc at Home - Keller
The Big Sur Bakery Cookbook
Earth to Table - Crump
Seven Fires
Italian:
Made in Italy - Locatelli
Urban Italian - Carmellini
A16
The Geometry of Pasta
A bunch of the Batali books are useful
Asian:
Washoku
At the Vietnamese Table
Cradle of Flavour - Oseland
There are many others I could recommend, don't hesitate to ask.

Sichuan Cookery by Fuchsia Dunlop
The Flavor Thesaurus by Niki Segnit is interesting and inspires experimentation
I have to recommend 50 Great Curries of India by Camellia Panjabi because it is the only recipe book I have made every recipe in.
The Raw Gourmet by Nomi Shannon has nice pictures and some nice food for hot days. Adding bacon to almost any recipe makes it awesome.

vegan completely for you ;)
on the left is like a soy/mirin braised asparagus+onion
the purple squiggle is satsumaimo, so just a roasted japanese sweet potato (look out for these, AMAZING flavor, sometimes I just roast a huge one and eat that with miso for a meal, coating each piece with roasted black sesame seeds, scallions, and soy sauce is also great)
finally, the atomic yellow stuff taquan or radish oshinko, a sweet pickled daikon
so just a handful of super simple stuff in complementary sweet and salt flavors my grandma would kill me if she saw me eating brown rice though
