Beauvoir's "The Second Sex": Is it the best analysis of women's political condition, not really. Is it the most historically and anthropologically accurate? not at all. But I became a feminist after reading it so we should all find beuavoir's ghost and thank her for that.

2. Feyerabend's "Against Method": NOT something that one should follow to the T, however the challenges to Popplerist empiricism are valuable and interesting. I left agreeing that it's valuable to question our othodox methods of knowledge acquisition regularly even if not an anarkiddy.

Ooh boy a fun little thread. I'll drop 3 that changed my trajectory too.
1. Joan Roughgarden's "The Genial Gene": very good introduction to cooperative equilibria in nature, and a solid counter-argument to the axioms and dogma of competition fetishism prevalent in the evolutionary sciences.
