So You Want to Be Well Read... - Page 4

This list is a wide breadth of world literature, history, philosophy, political thought, religion, and many other subjects. There are books of great historical significance (positive and negative); books that change our perspective; books that educate; books that broaden our understanding of different cultures, and of people from all walks of life; books that call for change; books that illuminate. This certainly isn't a definitive list for those that want to be well read. And I'll admit, some are over my head. But if you're looking for insight, all of these are a great start.
