What Are The Books You Read That Changed The Way You Look At Life?

[PIGEON-RAT]

Also anything on astrophysics can be a really good book as it shows you what life is like outside your own personal world. Its very humbling.

yeah, I would recommend A Brief History of Time as well as Universe in a Nutshell by Stephen Hawking. good shit.

 

[The_Eviscerator]

"the fountainhead" by ayn rand.

This and Atlas Shrugged.

 

[Island Son]

none have made a sea-change in my life, but there are a few like Book of Five Rings and Te Tao Ching I really liked. Generally I see the truth in bits and pieces... read a Discworld book last week for entertainment value, found something even there
