Book recommendations?

I'd like to see if there are any good books on techniques recepies for using multigrain and ancient nuts or flours such as whole wheat, Rye, Quinoa, Soy, Almond, Flaxseed, etc.

Any books that has general in-depth tips and analysis on gastronomy and science would be really nice as well. I'd like to see if I can find or make a recipe that can make bread that much more enjoyable, flavorful, and healthier.

Marco Vetri's Mastering Pizza

Yes, it's a pizza book, but for one, I think it's crazy to learn to make good bread dough and not extend that knowledge to pizza.

But mainly I'm shouting out this book because it has a couple of wonderful sections at the start about flour and grains, a passionate argument for whole wheat and milling your own, and a good run down of fermentation and the interplay of variables affecting fermentation.

The book in general is stunning, and some really interesting recipes. And pizza.
