Reading list

There is any number of books, approaching infinity or thereabouts, which are valuable in understanding ourselves and our position in the world. Quite a few men with whom I work have asked for a list of such books, and here are a few that some have found important and helpful. It’s certainly not comprehensive, and I won’t endorse every word of every book, but we take what we can.
