Nonfiction Books That Changed the Way You View the World (Reddit 2024) - Page 2

At the end of December 2024, on the Reddit sub r/suggestmeabook someone posted a call for "Books that changed the way you viewed the world (nonfiction)"
And the sub provided. This is a list of the responses, deduped and curated to only include nonfiction - as classified. I did see some discussion as to whether or not a book had been "debunked", but I didn't consider that my place to include or exclude a book based on those arguments. The assignment was simply to list a book that CHANGED YOUR VIEW.
I did not include books: where someone said "anything by" a specific author; an entire series; or an author was not given and I could not reasonably verify. If I missed anything else, I apologize, I'm human and I make mistakes and things could have been added since I looked at the list.
I see many new books to add to my list! Enjoy!
