Ignatius Meany's Must Read Philosophy Books

These books are some of the most important works in helping to construct society and our concepts of morals and ethics. I've included pure works of philosophy, some books that provide philosophical perspectives of seemingly normal things, and a few works of fiction given how biting their satire is and thus how important they are as social commentary.
