The Game: Penetrating The Secret Society of Pickup Artists - Neil Strauss
The Law - Frédéric Bastiat
Thus Spoke Zarathustra - Friedrich Nietzsche
The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress - Robert Heinlein
Cyberpunk: Outlaws and Hackers on the Computer Frontier - Katie Hafner & John Markoff
It's Not How Good You Are, Its How Good You Want to Be: The World's Best Selling Book - Paul Arden
Are ones that stand out. I'm sure a lot of other books helped shape my worldview though, especially ones I read as a kid. The "Tom Swift Jr." adventures, the "Three Investigators" stories, the "Nancy Drew" and "The Hardy Boys" ones, and those "Encyclopedia Brown" books all stand out in my memory as probably being influential. And later in life, I'd say Dean Koontz' work has had something of an impact.
