What are the best photo retouching books out there? I am looking for something advanced, that includes color correction and clear before-after examples.
Thank you very much in advance.

Not sure if it's what you are looking for, but Adobe Photoshop CS2 for Photographers is really good.

It's not really high end, though. I have it too and use some of the techniques, but when I went to comment on a professional facebook editing group I got schooled pretty fast.
The groups is High End Commercial and Editorial Post Production. There are some Vogue retouchers, etc., on there, waaay beyond my skillset (and I'd like to think I am pretty decent).
Skip any kind of blurring, frequency separation, etc. (I don't, as no one is paying me to spend 20 hours editing one photo, but if you want "high end"...)

More artistic than magazine style but this book is pretty good:
