The List Of Powerful Books
Millions of people read second hand books around the continent. They love reading because reading makes you more intelligent and helps you improve your knowledge. People want to know what the top influential books in the World are, whether they are beginners or people who have been reading for a while. There are hundreds of books suggested by many sources but I will just be listing the top twenty.
A lot of people do not agree with religious books being on the top 100 influential books but they have to realise that religion has always been influential in human era. According to Seymour Smith here are the top twenty lists of influential books he gives in no particular order.
The I Ching, Chinese classic texts, The Old Testament, The Iliad and The Odysseyby Homer, The Upanishads, Hindu scripture, The Way and Its Power, Lao-tzu, The Avesta, Analects Confucius, History of the Peloponnesian War, Thucydides, Works Hippocrates, Works Aristotle, History Herodotus, The Republic Plato, Elements Euclid, The Dhammapada, Aeneid Virgil, On the Nature of Reality, Lucretius Allegorical Expositions of the Holy Laws, Philo of Alexandria, The New Testament, Lives Plutarch, Annals from the Death of the Divine Augustus Cornelius Tacitus.
Yes most of the books listed above are to do with religions but they do indeed are influential in our lives. Here are the list of few books which I feel are influential and should be included in top 100 influential books.
The First Folio by William Shakespeare, Principia Mathematica by Isaac Newton, On The Origin of Species by Charles Darwin, Married Love by Marie Stopes, Book of Rules of Association Football by a group of former English public school men, A vindication of the Rights Of Woman by Mary Wollstonecraft, Magna Carta by members of the English ruling classes and On the Abolition of the Slave trade by William Wilberforce.
