Book List on the Sidebar

I decided to add something new on the sidebar.

It's a list of books that I believe have something significant to say about our world, how we perceive it, and our place within it.  

While I am open to suggestions for other books to list I will only list non-fiction books that I have personally read and that I feel have no specific political, social, or religious ax to grind.  

While it's impossible to get away from any kind of agenda, if the author's agenda gets in the way of picking out the useful information, it won't be listed.

Fiction can speak strongly to many important issues, but since it relates the message through set up environments and characters, it often leaves us with an emotional response but no real blueprint about how to use it in the real word.
