Here's a thought that popped into my head recently...
What book or books do you consider have been the most eye-opening for you as an individual?
For me, one definitely eye-opening book was Sophie's World by Jostein Gaarder. Before I read it, I was familiar with all lot of different worldviews through history (having read James Sire's The Universe Next Door ), but Gaarder was able to clearly explain many of the prominent philosopher's beliefs in a fairly entertaining book. Yes, I know I'm weird.
