Fantastic list. I would add any of C.S. Lewis’ classics - e.g. Mere Christianity is one of the most profound books I have ever read.

It is impossible to read all these books in the list but good to see the least for saving time while looking for some

New book . Many in the list personally did not like at all with few I could

Not even comprehend so one should always not get swayed by such list but make own decision keeping in mind likings and inclination towards subject or author. My bit of advice but yes I like listening to Jonathan for sure and he is an amazing communicator with great sense of fashion 👍

Great list. I just got done perusing your substack and man do I wish I found it earlier! Anyone have a good reading plan for the great books of the Western world + some others on this list?

Great list! I’m curious if you kept track of how the list evolved and how you decided the ranking.

You missed the most important one, the Urantia Book.
