Read here why this blog has a Tool Crib.
Because a book is included in this list does not suggest that I agree with every sentence of it or with everything else the author ever thought or wrote. This is a list of books that were of help to me in understanding or enjoying the topic and that led to my betterment of soul and understanding. This is not a list of the most important books ever written nor is it intended to be comprehensive; it is a general list of books that I would commend to your soul and understanding.
