What's a book you read lately that really changed how you think or feel about things?

Is that the George Eliot Novel? I've not read his stuff but i understand he has a very interesting writing style. On the other side is Buddhism. I have read a significant amount and my applied ontology about Perfection as a Topological Space has some foundation in it and argues against some of it. Thich Nhat Hanh's concept of "interbeing", the idea that nothing exists independently but only in relation to everything else, is the same structural insight the ontology attributes to Nagarjuna's sunyata. Thich Nhat Hanh was, in many ways, the person who translated Nagarjuna's relational emptiness into accessible, experiential language for a Western audience.

that's great reading. I should read War and Peace again. It's been way too long. My perspective on life has changed so much that i'm sure it will read different. Soren Kierkegaard is one of my favorite philosophers. Though they likely never read each other's work, Tolstoy and Kierkegaard arrived at remarkably similar conclusions: that rational philosophy cannot answer life's deepest questions, that a "leap of faith" is required, and that authentic existence demands radical personal commitment. Both also attacked institutional religion while insisting on the necessity of faith.
