Re: Books that inspired you
Some repeats here, but a few new titles as well -
new ones are in Bold -
These are some pretty diverse selections but each has had an impact -
1984 - racey when I read it as an 8th grader in 1973.
Bible - as others have mentioned, excellent stories and lessons to live by, regardless of your faith.
Boy Scout handbook - lessons and information for your lifetime.
Tuesdays with Morrie - a focus on what becomes important late in life.
I, Rivethead - a view of GM during the 1980's from a man on the assembly floor. It helps you see this perspective of the manufacturing process.
The Rag and Bone Shop of the Heart - a collection of poems and stories for that softer side.
7 Habits of Highly Effective People (Covey) - Lessons to learn and live by. Practical advice for everyone. This book spawned several "7 Habits of" books.
Harry Potter - just for the fun and adventure of it.
Green Eggs and Ham (Dr. Suess).
The Soul of a New Machine - PRoduct Development and People.
And, a must for every home -
Uncle John's Bathroom Reader - Several titles in the series -
A book full of short stories, trivia, quizzes, history, science, etc.
