Can someone give me some great Titles to start reading? id love to know everything there is to Botany :). My main goal is Medical :)
 
Campbell's Biology 9th edition. I used this book in my introductory biology courses at a very well respected university ;). Though it covers a lot of different aspects in biology it has excellent chapters on plant biology.

Campbell's Biology 9th edition.
That's a classic, had/have it too (don't recall the edition though)!

Concerning medicinal plants, maybe the best book about active constituents, secondary metabolites, use of many medicinal plants, etc. is the following (AFAIK it unfortunately only exists in German):
