There are many books people suggest I read which I have heard of but haven't had a chance to. On the other hand, some suggestions here are slightly outlandish.

There are many books people suggest I read which I have heard of but haven't had a chance to. On the other hand, some suggestions here are slightly outlandish. To their credit, some of these people have provided a brief synopsis to enable one to quickly decide if it's their cup of tea or not. My ultimate point is it strains credulity to think that there is a one size fits all approach to books. What you think is a great read others would say otherwise. There is no one book I would recommend everyone read. Maybe if we got specific into a particular academic field, there is. Not generally, though.
