Bibliography

Contained here is a short bibliography of the books that have changed my life. This is not a list of all the books that have changed my life, but the most important ones. As you might guess, these books are largly philosophical and theological, but there is a good smattering of fiction and other works.

The list will be in no particular order (because I don't feel like making it ordered in some way) except that I will try to put the most important at the top. That type of biography is not necessary, I don't think. Also I will only give title and author, enough for the reader to search on Amazon or Barnes and Noble for the book.
