The Complete Book of Origami by Robert J. Lang, 154 pages, 37 models,  ISBN: 0-486-25837-8.

Several very cool models. Unfortunately, many strange types of rectangles are required. Also, many models need to be/should be folded from paper that's the same color on both sides.

All in all a very good book if you have the patience to cut paper to the proportions required.
