(Apologies if this has been covered before, but searching didn't seem to find a pertinent topic.)

I understand that Digital Tutors seems to be the standard for how-to videos, but I'd like to get a good reference and instructional book as well. Should I just go with the official book by Derakhshani or is something like Murphy's  reference guide the better choice?

    3ds Max Help, maybe?
    Quite seriously. It's the most up-to-date reference, and has plenty of instructional content.
    You will need it once in a while as new releases come out; best get used to it.

    Printed books have become a bit out of fashion. I think its a bit sad, because i
    enjoy reading good written and structured documents and tutorials, and find them
    more in depth and easier to follow than videos. Also, because i enjoy reading
    learning stuff when im not in front of my computer.

    Luckily, there are tablets and e-readers for books, PDFs and online
    documentations, maybe thats what you should look for.

    Sorry, that i cant help you with a good recommendation for 3DSMax
