    Hi Everyone,

    I've found in the last decade or so that I haven't found many books that have really made me think and altered my world view. Perhaps this is just due to the fact that I'm well into adulthood and I'm reminiscing on books I mostly read in college. However, I always find myself hunting for something that can shift my perspective.

    • Gödel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid by Hofstadter
    • Freakonomics by Levitt and Dubner
    • The Stranger by Camus
    • On Tyranny by Timothy Snyder
    • Into the Wild by Krakauer
    • Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir
    • The End of Eternity by Asimov
    • To Autumn by John Keats
    • Sailing to Byzantium by W. B. Yeats
    • An Introduction to The Philosophy of Science by Rudolph Carnap
    • My Philosophical Development by Bertrand Russell
    • On the Taboo Against Knowing Who You Are by Alan Watts

    You can see my list includes fiction, non-fiction, and poems. I'm eager to jump into any of them, but this is what I like. My education and work is in physics (thus the philosophy of science bent) What else would you suggest?
