Although I consider the crew at Foundstone to be a bunch of
'sell outs' for having sold their company to McAfee, their
"Hacking Exposed" books are a great place to start. (Note:
Check them out at your local library first -- some are MUCH
better than others.)

Also, if you have about $400, buy the EC-Councils courseware
for the Certified Ethical Hacker training. It is very tool
oriented and packed full of good info. However, you will need
to do a lot of online research for each topic in the course;
the course does not stand on its own.

Finally, attend a con. Recommendations for inexpensive but
high quality conferences in the US include:
        ShmooCon
        DefCon
        ToorCon
