Re: My Own (Initial) List
I haven't been putting anytime into this because the premise seems so overwhelming. I guess I can think of one that seems oddly appropriate.
The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy
Also, I think Bill Bryson's "A Short History of Nearly Everything" would have to be on my list.
Well that's two. I will try to put some effort into expanding this list.

Re: My Own (Initial) List
On this broad subject I would recommend this book if you haven't already read it The Passion of The Western Mind
Sounds like a very interesting book. Found a used copy on Amazon for $3.50 and $3.99 shipping. Already ordered it. Thanks
